Well this is KZread He’ll only benefit by sharing his knowledge!
I worked for Gibson guitars in Nashville, doing final setup on electric guitars. We used a pretty cool way to mark the nut as a guide to how deep to cut the string slots. Cut a pencil in half, then lay it it on the frets, with the lead touching the nut. Slide it across the frets to make a line across the nut. Then cut your string slots, down to where the line is. It gets the action very close to where it needs to be. Hope that makes sense!

How much they pay
This works. Around the start of COVID I took guitar work seriously after not understanding a Floyd system. I did as much as I could on my own and my buddy at a local shop called me needing some help. He was paying me around $20 an hour which I was grateful for as I was just learning. He eventually went out of town and let me run the shop for a month. I worked there a bit longer when he got back, but eventually we both had to part ways for money reasons. I used what I made there to invest in proper tools and did some solo stuff for awhile (and still do) but got picked up by a local used guitar store billing $60 an hour. While I'm not pocketing the full $60, the workload is incredible and the customer base I'll have in a few years is more than worth it. I'm so thankful for other professionals for sharing their knowledge in person and online otherwise I'd still be miserable as a stage hand.

In my opinion if you’re working on a customer’s guitar and you take the nut action too low you should never use superglue/baking soda. Its not a permanent fix. Ideally you should make a new nut. You can use it in a pinch or on your personal guitar

This seems like a great idea. I retired last year, and this is just the thing I can do to keep me busy, and make a few bucks, while finally doing something I love doing. In my free time, I have been working on guitars for over 7 years, doing setups, mods, and upgrades. Mainly for family, friends, and my own. Now seems like a perfect time to give it a shot. I have the tools, though some will need upgrading, but who doesn't like new tools! Thanks guys! This video has really inspired me.
Great video, guys! On the ‘complex’ math for how much to take off the saddle, it’s as easy as multiply by 2. You wanted to lower the action .030, so times 2 is .060 - the amount to take off the saddle. Your estimate (impressed by your eye and feel for this, by the way) was 1.5mm or about .050. If you’d done .060, perhaps you’d be where you wanted to be. Just times 2!
I learned setup and repair because I could not afford to pay anyone. Over the years I gained a solid understanding of how they are put together and work, and that morphed into guitar building. Excellent video. Thanks.

Started off as a player but now morphed into a tinkerer but, even if I do say so myself, I can set up a mean guitar. Took a little bit of money, learning and fuckups along the way but now I can handle pretty much anything up to really serious stuff like a bust truss rod or neck break. Done resprays, finish repairs, fret levels etc and do feel really good when I do my own work

It's kind of a scam, because if you really care about your instrument and music, then it just makes sense to learn as much as possible about it. people who try to play and never even figure out how to tune up by ear and to the set intonation. should not even be trying to be a musician 😆. If your giging and have multiple guitars, it makes more sense to have a guy to maintain your guitars.

Had to pause for a second. I know the math for the saddle height from another luthier channel. It's super simple. Measure the height at the 12th fret, substract the height you want (so you have the excess height) and just double it up. That's what you need to take off of the saddle. E. g. the action at the 12th is 110 and you want 80, you need to take off 60 (30 x 2) at the saddle. Great video(s)! Cheers from Germany! :) Edit: HA!!! Just continued the video and you said, you take off 60. That prooved me right! ;-P

A great way to learn setups is to buy the cheapest guitars you can find, set them up so they play better, and try to sell them for a slight profit. I can now set up strats because of this. It's amazing how poorly people care for their guitars. A fret polish (not level, just polish), serious cleaning, some light fret-end dress, and a good setup can go miles for playability. Even if you break even on your purchase and sale of the guitar, you have already won through the knowledge you gain by fixing it up.

@@highrider9168 have used a few things 0000 guage steel wool and the music nomad fret polishing kit. Stew mac makes great micromesh pads, which i'd recommend. The compounds/liquid stuff does a "better" job but it's a lot more messy and difficult. Cleaning the frets - a scraper is your best bet, and a damp cloth of course! I have used steel wool but I think it shows scratches.
Being a carpenter and mechanic by trade early in life has enable me to have acquired many of the specialized tools you have that are used in other trades. I use the depth side of a set of calipers to measure string height and a two foot level with a machined surface to within .0005" to gauge fret height. The look on someones face after you have magically transformed an instrument to play like never before is priceless. They just look at you like holy crap I didn't know their was that much difference when you can play songs just like the original recordings. Just love guitars and music in general for this wanna be master 😁
My first setup was on my electric bass. I watched 5-6 YT videos so i would know what to do each step of the way. My bass played much better afterwards. Next, I did a setup on my least expensive acoustic. I've now set up a couple of my friends guitars, and I do all of my own guitars. The scariest thing I've ever done is drilling/enlarging a hole in my brand new Martin 000-15M and installing a K&K Pure Mini. At that point, it was the most expensive guitar that I owned, so I was really happy that everything went ass planned. I enjoy working on guitars and I trust myself more than I trust the unknown techs at the big box music store. For years I believed that only highly trained professionals should ever touch a truss rod nut LOL.
This is the BEST. Top to bottom - it’s real, hilarious, fun and incredibly informative. Love this!! 😂💯

Amazing. You guys are great. I admire your transparency and the information you provide so freely. I am a guitar player, not a maker or repair person, but just watching your videos teaches me so much and enables me to appreciate my instruments more: including a couple of Taylors and a handmade Propsom.
Chris, you make this look so easy. Thanks for all your content. Love your videos
I'm in the South Suburbs of Chicago, and I charge $50.00,plus strings for a setup. Keep up the great work!
I have always been nervous to try my own set ups but you made it so simple to understand ! Thanks guys for your great videos:) keep up the good work.
Really great video! Your brother Mike is a good friend and turned me on your channel a while back. I really appreciate the different perspectives you offer. While I've done a few minimal electric setups, this is the first time I've been inspired to get a little more into setting up my own guitars.
Thanks much Driftwood for posting this excellent how-to video. After doing repairs as a sideline for a few decades I'm nearing retirement and plan to put this information to work!
Chris, thank you for sharing! I bought a kit guitar to get started and your information is very , very helpful.

Great post. Thanks for taking the time. I find this inspiring. This is my dream job. Honestly. I’d love to work on guitars and become a tech/luthier.

Thx Guys, I am going to start doing setups on my own guitars , I just ordered the GP Repair guide , keep the instructions Vids coming !!!
I bought the nut rescue powder set from StewMac when I converted a 35" scale bass to BEAD tuning because the nut was cut too low for 3 of the four strings when I bought the bass. I wanted to get the height right after I widened the nut slots for the bigger strings and it worked really well up to the .130-gauge low B string and it has held up really well. I find I like tweaking my setups very much. I know the nut power set is not on your list but with some superglue it makes it nice to match the nut color since it comes with different tinted powders. I love your videos and thank you to both of you. I still wish I could afford one of your guitars...wow.
This video was so easy to understand. The three major areas. Nut, relief, and saddle. The adjustments to each. Now can you do FRET SPROUT on bound or unbound fretboard? Here in Northern Los Ángeles humidity is down to 5%. I have some deep fret sprout on my acoustics. Great video! Thank you!

Gooood evening from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great night!
That’s a great estimation. Lowering 0.030” @12th fret means lowering 0.060” at the bridge because 1/2 of the string length (hypotenuse of the triangle) will be 1/2 the height of the short side of the right triangle. (Edited for spelling)
thank you Matt and Chris
I just leveled and crowned frets one a couple guitars and I did pretty good, and I kinda enjoyed it. I think this just inspired me to try this out professionally.
Best action setup video I've seen. Maybe you can do one on fret level and re-crown? Question: when you lowered the nut slots, is there sometimes(?) a need to lower the top surface of the nut as well so that part of the string protrudes above the nut?
@stevewilliams846

Yes.
Here is a trick you "might appreciate" for acoustics/classical guitars. You can take a hard cover book and slide it under the strings between the sound hole and the bridge. Slide it all the way down to the bridge, (which will lift the strings) and pull out the saddle to work on it. This is the ultimate time saver on classical guitars
awesome vid!! thanks!!
So I'm starting an online guitar repair course next week and this has got me so eager to start
I made a bone saddle for my guitar once all I had was a caliper and a needle file set. it took me 3 1/2 hrs all by hand. After I got it done I brought it down to the guitar shop. The shop owner was impressed. He let me know that I left the edges a little sharp under the string wich i corrected. I have to say it was pretty gratifying to do that myself.
Great video as always.

A quick reckoning for the nut height is to measure the height at the 12th, then take away what you want it to be, and then take double that of the bottom of the nut, i.e. if it's at say 0.110, and you want say 0.095, 0.110-0.095 = 0.015, 0.015*2 = 0.030, hope that makes sense,

Great video as usual .. Couple of questions (1) how do you know when to stop? (2) and as a non real player, but as someone who has built and fixed dozens of instruments, I always struggle to know the “ah this is perfect, stop now” moment ..
Great video mate. One question, would you recommend getting the neck relief gauge INSTEAD of the straight edge and feeler gauges? Feels like it could be a needless waste of money getting all of them?
Yea we could hang for sure. You guys are like the guys I grew up with.
Budget as much as you can for tools and supplies. Get your feeler gauges from the hardware or auto parts. Make a stable neck rest. Buy every truss rod wrench you can afford. Keep spare nuts and saddles. This is a Stew Mac commercial. That's fine. But there's other companies out there that make decent tools. Some Stew Mac tools are indispensable a lot of them aren't. Buy a bunch of guitars, yard sales or whatever. Get them as playable as possible. The jacked up ones save to break and repair later. Sell the decent ones for what you can get and buy more tools and supplies. Work on all of your guitars. If you can't fix yours you shouldn't touch someone else's. Work on your friend's guitars. Ask people to be critical of you. Count on a lot of time talking to people and discussing their guitars- that's valuable time you don't get paid for. Be straight with the people you deal with. Charge a fair price for your skills. You'll probably never get ten guitars a day to setup. Don't spend money you can't afford not to have on hand. You will not make it back as quickly as you've spent it.
Great video, thank you very much. One question, what should the height be at the first fret for all strings? Its always just the low E and high E that are mentioned. Is there a rule to go by to adjust the height for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th string?
Totally enjoyed this video, I got a bag full of guitar tools in a kit for my birthday. Some of them I had to look up what they were. I've got a couple old acoustic guitars, that have super high strings. I'm going to try these tools out. Thanks for the instruction...peace...
Excellent video, I learned a lot… I am retired and have just moved to southern Indiana from Colorado, huge humidity difference… I believe that I have that under control, but I believe that my nearest credible luthier is 40 miles away… Therefore I have started educating myself through KZread videos such as yours… In my quest for knowledge I ran across an online luthier school that offers a guitar technician course… Sounded interesting to me as it is certificate program that teaches not only the technical side but the business side as well, so I could use it as a side hustle… Question to you all, have you guys ever heard of “Southeast Guitar Academy ” out of Buford, GA? They are the ones offering this course… Thanks…
Get the Dan Erlewine dvd on fretting and setup. He shows you way cheaper ways to get started. A 2’ aluminum level trued up with sandpaper on table saw table will level it up and work for leveling fretboards and frets. Also a plastic drafting T-square for a straight edge with some tape along the side for better sighting works just fine and you can file slots in the opposite side to check fretboard after it’s fretted. Get Dan’s dvd and the tips will pay in the end.
