I don't know if there is such a thing as a "normal set-up".

But let me ask you this- why are you concerned about the set-up anyway? You can set the thing up anyway you like when you get it.

What you need to be concerned with is the overall build/quality of the guitar. And the return policy.

I mean it may have a perfect set-up for you (the way you like it). But that doesn't mean it's not going to be a POS.

Fret wear, pups, tuners, all these things are way more important IMO.

And again, the return policy.

Hi, I was just thinking that if the guy had it set up well and new his stuff the chances are it would be a good example. I was going to give it a full set up anyhow just wanted to know what the guy had done to it, and if he had set it up well. Then I was thinking he would of known how to look after it as well.
