How do you adjust a guitar saddle?
You raise or lower the saddle by turning the hex screws with a tine hex wrench. Turn the screw clockwise to raise the saddle; turn it counter-clockwise to lower the saddle. If the saddle has two hex screws, be sure to turn them the same amount so that the saddle stays level.
Do Taylor Guitars have shims under the saddle?
shims not saddle on a taylor - The Acoustic Guitar Forum. I keep seeing people tell other people to sand the saddle on a Taylor for string height. Taylors are made to adjust the shims on the neck to adjust string height. That is the correct way.
What should the action be on a Taylor guitar?
Call the Taylor customer service department. *Our factory specs for action are 4/64-inches on the high E string and 6/64-inches on the low E. Our 12-string models are set slightly lower — 3/64-inches on the high E and 5/64-inches on the low E. These measurements are valid only when the neck is straight!
