Thanks Christopher i will go and try some out. That pic that you said the action was high and bad, which i agreed, but luthier didn't??, if i were to guess at which fret, i'd say the 5th. Do you think only learning for 9 months i'm capable of changing my strings myself? I just checked out your video on it, both electric and acoustic, but i found the camera angel not being up close hard to understand what i would do, and also it didn't show how to take string off of the tuning pegs and i couldn't see clearly how to put the string in or twist it, bc the camera wasn't close up. What do you recommend for help for me to learn to change, would i have to watch both the removal of electric and acoustic for complete picture, or find another video with close up camera? Tx for all your help!
