Custom Line CLD-41SE WN : Little adjustment with action and bam ! great to play

6 years ago

It wasn't totally necessary but i installed a new bone nut and saddle and ebony saddle pins(it already has bone nut and saddle).

I did think the action was high at the 12th fret . Perfect at the nut so i adjusted truss rod a little and sanded down the bone saddle quite a bit. the electric fishman pickup wire sits beneath the saddle so it tends to raise the height of saddle and action of string for 12th fret and beyond.

I sanded bone saddle a good bit to get the desired 2mm action and she plays way better and actually sounds nicer. Make no mistake this is a bargain for the price and craftsmanship as so many are saying.

My only wish is ;

Make the guitar in gloss back and sides!

Make the guitar have the abalone up the sides of the base neck near sound hole like the true martin d45!

Great guitar tho 10/10 for price
