The easiest thing in the world, would like to get my action lower still, stingray Pete do you have any advice you could give me. Its good at 2mm but it does start to fret buzz if i go any lower.

Well all here was my approach and i at happy with it: 1: Hold down 1st fret with a capo (or wife or child like i used) and the last fret. 2: Measure the gap between the E string and the 8th fret. 3: I had no gap so had to raise it by turning the truss rod wheel to the left 1/4 of a turn. 4: Measured gap again with feeler gauge at 8th fret trying to get a 0.3mm gap, gap was 0.3 (luck). 5: String height seemed and felt high to me at 2.4mm (the suggested height by most videos on you tube). 6: Adjusted the saddles so the strings were 2mm from the fret-board at the 12th fret. All seems to be working fine. This is the first time i have ever done this in 26 years of playing as i thought it was voodoo. I would suggest to all to not be afraid of this it was easy as, If you follow the instructions above i don't think you can go wrong. String height on the saddles is personal preference but i like mine low.

Hi all, just picked up a great stingray slo special HH 4 string. Have put a new set of 30-90 strings on and all is good, however the string height seems a little high to me, however between the 1st and 4th frets there is a hint of fret buzz. At the 12 fret the gap is about 2.5 / 3mm. what would be the best coarse of action in setting up this great beasty. thanks in advance for your help. Rob

I find the same with glossy necks, my daughter squire jazz is great but it does slow me down and feels strange to me. You could try some wet and dry on it to make it satin. My daughter wont let me do this on hers which is a shame, however she has no issue with the finish unlike me, I think its my clammy hands.

Thanks guys for the feedback, Bob the dog get out there with your RH750 bet it would sound awesome.

Hi all, I have a TC RH450 and a RS212 cab and i am looking for another cab to get the noise closer to my ears (6ft 4). I am think that a RS210 would make sense to as i would have a bit more sparkle in the upper range to go with the 2x12. Does anyone have this setup and if so how do they find it? Kind Regards Rob

Datum hole maybe, is there a mark on the back of the neck that you line up with the hole to make sure its aligned correctly before you tighten the screw? Cannot see why you would need one if its made to fit properly but if its cheap then maybe that's why. cannot see why you would need it for spraying as i have not see it before, but could be. Rob :-)
