Sire V7 set up

[paulyboy]

Hi , anyone got any set up numbers for a Sire V7 , four string , should I set up as a Fender Jazz ???

[lownote]

E 2.4
A 2.0
B 1.8
G 1.6

all in millimetres @12th fret

relief 0.3mm at 8th fret, E strng touched down on 1st and last fret

IMHO having had three of them, and Scott Devine's set up advice

Set up numbers.? Why don't you just set it up to an action that feels good.Set it up as a Fender Jazz.? I'm confused.

This. Surely just adjust until it feels comfortable to you and your playing style?

only YOU know what your ideal setup numbers are.

Do you prefer a low or high action for a start. Or in between?

there are no set rules for this, just the manufacturer's suggestion which doesn't include low and high alternatives.

My action is low so it buzzes a bit if I really dig in. No idea what that is in millimeters though
