[@jajs283]

Loved this video. I Learned so much. I didn’t know how a guitar intonation was set. Very interesting. I had a local luthier in my town repair my 1958 Gibson J 45. Was in its case for 35 years. Broken bridge, broken tuner peg, 3 broken top braces, 2 large cracks in the top, 2 loose braces on the back. All from my high school best friend passing out and hitting his head on the bridge. Of coarse me letting my guitar lay on the Desert floor next to a campfire wasn’t the smartest thing I’ve ever done. Young and dumb. My step father sold me the Gibson for 100$. I replaced her in 1994 with a Taylor 812 C. Spending the money to get her repaired was definitely worthwhile. I always told my wife when the house is paid off I was getting it restored. Words can not explain the emotional ride I took when I played it again after all those years. Wow the tone is so good. Wrote my first song on her and boy am I glad I never tossed her in a dumpster. The luthier said he was too. Your talent and those like you are greatly appreciated thanks for the videos.

[@gorgiasxx]

I used your method with black marker and calipers for getting the correct height of the saddle the other day. It worked out perfectly. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing these tips with us amateurs. My guitar plays like a dream now. 🙂

[@redlinemando]

Nice job!!!!!!! Achieving low action can be very challenging without knowing the owner's playing habits. Light strings with an owner that plays aggressively is an almost impossible feat. The owner doesn't play hard, but if he did, he should expect some buzzing. I prefer very low action & I use medium strings. The medium strings give me enough volume & the low action gives me much more control with the left hand. Since learning this, I have learned to play lighter & worry about getting good tone over more volume. After all, good tone is one of the things that attracts us to listen to our favorite musicians. A good player will learn to adapt their playing habits to get tone & volume on low action. Great video & keep up the good work!!!!!!!

I admire how this gentleman luthier says no shimmering for me, either do it right or start again. Some years ago I asked my luthier to lower the action on my Ibanez Hummingbird dreadnought, he was hesitant but it turned out perfect, ie who wants to use excessive force, muscle to fret the instrument, unless you're Arnie Schwartznegger? And as Leo Kottke explained yonks ago, guitars don't like being tuned to concert pitch because everything is straining, so tuning down a half step or a full step (Lonnie Mack) works wonders. Great job again Rosa Strings,✌️

@@daveanderson5680 What about my Ibanez Hummingbird model? Sounds pretty darn good to me,👌 Actually for clarification it's the Cherry Sunburst Jamboree 680 model Nagoya Japan with the Hummingbird Gibson pick guard, which umm, presently has fallen off. It's a bit over 50 years old, 52 to be exact, plays and sounds great. Interesting too the bridge saddle is metal with simply a height adjustment screw at each end. The saddle is dead straight, sits 90 degrees to the strings, no fancy compensation for the low strings compared to the high strings, yet the intonation seems fine. Hmm, gonna have to glue that pick guard back on,🤔

Jerry, I really appreciate the way you think. You've been my teacher now for a while.

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

In the electric guitar world we use adjustable bridges... makes it easy. Nuts are nuts regardless, so they are just as un-adjustable... and just as rough to get 'as low as possible' Sometimes we see a 'zero fret' and the nut behind it just spaces the strings, the fret setting the height. I have often wondered how it would be to use a fully adjustable bridge on an acoustic.. just imagine, perfect intonation on every string. Beautiful work as usual Jerry, again a very educational, skill building, video.

[@2drsdan]

BONE just like in your knee bone on bone gives the best sound. No, wait, that's a different subject. A bone nut and saddle on an acoustic brings out the MAX sound and tone on a wooden box, metal would never do. Look at the adjustable bridges they put on acoustic archtops even with just the screws being metal volume and tone are affected.

[@2drsdan]

@BreatheScotland My guitar came with Tusq saddle and nut, which is way better than plastic to be sure but bone just made it even louder and more rich. And pins, bone pins help a lot as well.

[@notsuretwo]

Good video, and I know you understand the fact that Martin D-28 Guitars are made for tension. They have a lot of volume with light to medium strings. The construction of theses guitars also makes them resistant to change from humidity and temperature (in my opinion). I have a Martin D28 and sometimes i think about lowering the action, but the I think the best thing to do is to just play and practice. Build up the strength in your fingers and enjoy the wonderful loud tone of these guitars. There are other guitars that will have lower action and are plenty loud for playing around the house. I am not saying don't lower the action, but like you say it can be tricky.

Things I've learned from Jerry [ non-technical stuff ]: After all is said and done, it's still essentially WOOD. There is a way---look hard, consider, and you will find it. Don't give up--anything can be fixed, regardless of whether it should be fixed or not. No matter how many clamps you have, you don't have enough. Titebond is NOT permanent, if you don't want it to be. Don't grieve over your mistakes---correct them, learn something, and move on. Learn how to make your own tools and useful gizmos--it's fun, and very useful. Don't try to be a copy of Jerry--the mold was broken when he was made. Be your unique self. Finally, when you say prayers for folks, throw one in for Jerry Rosa. He deserves it.

Martin recommends Medium strings on their D28 model, not sure why anyone would put on lights or Extra lights, missing out on so much sound! Its always good to check the tension rod as the first measurement, then the settle, then the nut.

Sounded pretty good to me

[@elic13]

On my Martin D-18V I use lights when recording with guitar/mandolin only and mediums in a full bluegrass band. I don’t agree with the deer antler material. Cow leg bone is the best.

[@lorenzor2555]

Actually Martin says "medium or lighter", that is medium set is the maximum, not the reccomanded one. I play a Martin HD28V that I own since the late '90s (previously I had a D35), and I think that lights (0.12) sound better on it. I also think that Neil Young uses lights on his Dreadnought guitars

[@salvatorebruno6799]

Cause they want it as easy to play, is the only reason why you'd put extra light strings on a guitar.

[@jpguthrie6669]

Great video. As a Martin owner, I know that they are very sensitive to changes in string gauge. If you are trying to get a very low action, do your setup with extra light strings. If it buzzes, put in strings which are a little heavier, this often gets rid of the buzz. If you do your setup with heavier strings, you are likely to get some buzz if you put in lighter strings. But if your action is too high and you are using heavier strings, you can often get it noticeably lower by installing lighter strings.

[@taylor-vl1re]

First let me say I enjoy your site and you are doing a great job. Let me throw in my 2 cents if I can. As a luthier and repairman I have set up a few thousand guitars in a 20 year period. After having set up dozens of Strats, Tele's, Les Pauls, etc...Taylors, Martins, Guilds, etc,...after a while and from experience you already know where you are headed with the set up and if there may be any limitations. In general but not always the better made the instrument the better the set up can be and easier to do. Assuming the set up on the guitar is not that far off I play all the strings on the 10,11, 12 frets, maybe more. I try and make them buzz. If I can hit hard and they don't buzz I know I have room to lower the saddle, How much?...That comes with experience. Assuming the neck relief is close, I will play the 5 and 6th strings on the 2, 3, 4th frets. If there is buzzing esp. the 6th string, 3rd fret, the G-chord...the neck is too flat. After that I'll go back and forth between the truss rod and saddle and slightly " tweak" everything These are generally the first two steps I do to get things close. Of course every instrument is different and each will have different variables...are the frets level? Is there a rise at the end of the fret board? Is there a lot of tension in the neck/instrument, or is it relaxed? The playing style of the musician? Does he play smoothly or slam the strings? Does he bend a lot. I could write a book, I'll stop....Carry on...Good job.....

[@robertnewell5057]

Yet again, you nailed the central issue, Jerry - the lighter the gauge, the the more potential for buzzing at a given height. Really, these are close to electric gauge strings at close to electric heights. No buzzing, but the guy certainly wasn't digging in. D28s are graded for 13s, although most people I know use 12s, but it's horses for courses again. D28s don't get many outings for gentle fingerpicking, although they are actually good for that (step forward Paul Simon), and flatpickers are more concerned with volume and projection which demands a lot of attack. Also don't agree with one of the comments about plugging in. A plugged in acoustic with lots of gain sounds completely different from an accoustic (or a plugged acoustic with less gain). If you want that sound, fine, but you are never going to get classic bluegrass sounds with light strings, a low action and a cranked up amp -too much resonance, and the resulting tone is too wishy washy (technical term). If the customer is happy, good for him. His guitar - his rules.
