Low action

[Emanuel Apascaritei]

Please tell me how low is a low action but in cm cuz I don´t understand in inches or how you calculate it.

Can someone tell me what is a low action in cm??

about 2 - 2.5mm or less from bottom of the string and the fret.

give a hungry man a fish and he won't be hungry for a day.
show a man how to fish and he never will be hungry again!



lets say your action is 4/64"

then take an inch (2,54cm or 25,4mm) and devide that by 64.
then muliply the result by 4 and you have your end result:

25,4mm/64*4=1,5875mm


or: first multiply and then devide:
25,4mm*4/64 ~= 1,6mm


edit:
2mm sounds fine to me
