    Useful and to the point! Apprecitate the visual ruler as a guide too! Don't have the cash on hand to go back to the Luthier so going to try at home and let it set a bit. He lowered/sanded my saddle down last time and lowered the action but I still get a lot of string buzz

    Thanks dude, this is exactly what mine is doing on A and D string, does a BR- 160 have a small arch behind the saddle, made in 2005, noticed it wasn't flat, thanks for the info on the site, you and Ben top notch with the instruments.

    I just bought a rusty old guitar with a lot of potential for my students to use as they learn a new hobby. The guitar has that tiny sound you described so when I get home this evening I’m going to put your fantastic advice into action. Thanks for a wonderful 11 minutes of help.

    Make sure to tune back to pitch after you adjust your trussrod or it won't be right.

      Also use a straight edge that sits on the fretboard not the frets.

      maybe too much tension or too big of adjustments, loosen strings and let the neck rest after making small adjustments
