I play mostly Martins and the last one I bought came set at 4.5/32in which left me room to make minor adjustments.However the action at the nut was fine and I consider that important for at home setup.I had to make a slight truss rod adjustment and sand a little off the saddle to end up at 3.5/32in which for me is perfect for my Martins.Because the nut action was set correct and the neck angle correct at the factory setup it leaves me plenty off room to get the action I want at the 12th fret.At 3.5/32in my action feels low on my Martin,inotation is right,saddle break angle correct,neck relief is also right.It left the factory pretty much that way giving me room to let me get my own custom setup with a simple truss rod adjustment and sanding the saddle bottom...cib
