If your J15 is brand new, yes, the action probably is slightly high. The factory does that intentionally to enable the buyer to shave down the bridge to where they like their action.
If you bought it from a local dealer, they should be willing to adjust it for you at no cost. That's what I did when I bought my Martin at The Music Emporium here in town. They put it on the bench, made a few measurements, and then removed just enough saddle height to have it play the way I like it. It took less than ten minutes.
