Action on schecters.

[Owen Bacon]

So, I picked up a schecter for the first time at my guitar center. i liked it except that the action was really low. I don't know about you guys but i just hate low action. it didnt buss or anything, but i just got that clicky sound when i did fingerstyle. So i was just wondering can you do some truss rod magic and make the action a bit higher, or does it stay that way.


sorry if this is a dumb question, I just recently discovered action and stuff.

Try raising the bridge saddles. I wouldn't adjust the truss rod if the neck is straight and relief is good.

This might help:

If the bass has saddles, raise them. I had a Schecter up until recently. Had an S-Tek bridge. All you had to do was use a hex key to adjust the height of the string needing adjustment.

Below pictured is the S-Tek bridge. Found on basses like the Stiletto Custom / Studio 6.

thanks. well now i begin the process of debating between schecter and fender.

That's some debate. Don't think you will go wrong with either, but your best bet would be to get one of each. (I love my Schecter C4 Custom!)
