What are some good specs for string height to make playing more enjoyable and easier?

If you’re talking about your guitar’s action (the height of the strings off the fingerboard) it can be lowered or raised. I’d take it to a guitar shop with a good repair guy or girl 🙂 and ask them.

I know this is a little late but…I’ve been setting my action at 3/32″ for low E and 5/64″ for the high E both at the 12th fret. Hope that helps.

  Thanks Bill. My guitar is a little over 3.5/32 and 2.5/32. About to take it down a bit.
