What's up everybody, here's little video on how I typically set up my Les Pauls. It's a five step method that I've used for a long time and it works for me. Even if you don't use any of these, it gets you thinking about the importance of a good tune up for your favorite guitar. I tried my best to film my steps but it proved to be harder than I thought it would be. Thanks again for watching, more to come! • *****I had a really good comment from ‪@johnpratt7452‬ take a look: • Never seen action height measure from the fretboard itself... I guess it doesn't really make a difference at the end of the day. My only input would be that using that rule of 3/32's won't always be reliable with different fret sizes. Like from a fretless wonder to medium to jumbo... I always aim for 3/64's from the TOP of the frets themselves not the fretboard since this is the actual clearance that you need to avoid buzzing. • Thanks for looking out John! What works for me, may not work for you! His recommendation is the proper way to check btw. I lucked out on mine because my LP frets are all the same*** • Timecodes • 0:00-Intro • 3:12-6:08-Step 1 Relief • 6:09-10:27-Step 2 String Change/Clean • 10:28-12:23-Step 3 String Height • 12:24-13:32-Step 4 Intonation • 13:33-14:53-Step 5 Pickup Height • 14:54-Recap Outro • • Disclaimer: I am not a professional luthier or technician. I enjoy doing this on my own and understand the consequences. If you are uncomfortable, please take it to a tech for a full set up!!
