i got a peavey millenium 5 string and i use fairly high gauge strings but im in standard tuning, putting more tension on the neck and making the action worse. i tightened the truss rod as far as it can go but this doesnt help much. i adjusted the saddles as far as they go without buzzing, but the action still isnt good. any suggestions?

@mjk11outdoors At this point, you need a professional set up. If you can find a guitar shop near you, ask them how much. It should be less that $100, mine was.

Very nice video~

The info helped me get rid of the annoying buzz on my own bass (which I thought, originally, was the result of a low-end bass. >.> Just the bridge though. XD); now to work on getting the action on my instruments to be what I want...

Btw, is that the B-105 model?

@ManasJeuneFilleX Thank you for watching :) It's a B-155

@buttrknifegoobie No, I think I'll stay. I have to take the jobs from people like you so they can get done properly. Tell me, how is it knowing you came out of your father's cousin's vagina?

Having a slipknot poster and a fan under it lets me know he's a slipknot "fan"
