Ok going to make a tapered shim, I want it reasonably low. Or rather I want to be able to go low if the fancy takes me.
Play Bass - GET MORE ACTION
who goes over the 12th fret on the low string anyway...
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I like mine set to 2mm for all strings and the ATK300 is set to just that. I play with pick mostly and like to dig in and get slap and string percussive noise. Feels right to me, certainly would not go higher for how I like it.

If you go over the 12th fret on a bass, you're better off playing a guitar.
