You used it wrong.. Idk if you've figured it out since posting this but for other people.. He used the 2 middle lines for his high e string. But, The 2 left lines under the word "Low" are for low action , and the 2 middle lines under the word high shows high action.. 6 Is low e string and 1 is high e string. So if you want low action on your guitar you're ONLY going to be using the 2 left lines under "Electric guitar low"

Thanks for this, I checked my action at the 12th fret and it lines up exactly with the low action marks.

Hey John, I just bought the same fritz ruler/notched ruler pack as yours and came across the same problem. The manufacturer has labeled the short scale notches as long scale and vice versa, just flip it over. I’ve tested it on an SG and a Tele starting at the 2nd fret and it works fine.

I put mine on my kitchen counter top that I know is strait and I could see that it was off a little. I also use the Capo 1st. fret & finger on the last fret with a feeler gauge in the middle method. Thanks for watching

what about the other strings? i dont understand, do i only measure my low E and high E with this? how do i measure the A,D,G,B strings?

Thanks for the comment.. I set my A, D, & G the same height as my low E and the B string the same height as my high E . I use these settings as a starting point. Then I tweak each string to get it to a height that I prefer and not get any fret buzz. There is no set rule that says your strings have to be set to the guitar makers specs, it's sort of like adjusting your car seat, whatever works for you. Some players that doo a lot of string bending ore use a slide prefer a higher action, I prefer my action as low as possible and check each fret for any string buzz. If I hear it then I raise the string till it sounds clean. Don't forget that the neck has a lot to doo with string action height so get it as straight as possible with the truss rod. Hope I helped you out and thanks for watching

@@atoontoto Not a problem . This video will explain it better then I can but you will need a Capo and make sure you loosen your strings before you tighten the truss rod kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sN6pm6yBu9uUqqM.html
