rolloman Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 On a Les Paul can the action be lowered while the strings are at tension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L5Larry Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Yes. Bridge height and saddle adjustment can be done at tension. What IS NOT recommended is adjusting the truss rod under tension (especially tightening). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrorod Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Thats sort of what I was thinking also, fzfan. It seems that a lot of 'unnecessary' wear is introduced to the saddle and bushing especially when raising the height! I have snugged up (tightened) truss rods under tension with no ill effects.....(so far) at least... :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
