Down Tuning a CA Cargo
If I purchase a CA Cargo, how do you adjust the action based on tunings and string gauge. If I string with mediums and tune down a half step / drop C# how do you adjust if it doesn’t have a truss rod? New saddle? Thank you

It is doubtful you will have to adjust the action, actually. For example, my wife's Cargo lives in Open G tuning (DGDGBD) with light gauge 53-12 strings. She doesn't play regularly enough to have serious callouses built up, so we took off the medium's that are normally used for short scale guitars.

My tech dropped my down a full step down to D. I have light strings on her and its a joy to play. It was a bit tricky without a truss rod but he was able to do a beautiful job.

How did your tech do the job? I play half and whole step down mostly.

He took the saddle down.
