Tech Notes: Currently, setup with 45-100 gauge round wound strings and medium-low action at the bass side to medium action across the treble side. This is due to the neck having a slight "S" curve and swoop up at the heel. This causes the buzzing/fretting out when the action is set low. With current setup there is no fretting out and only minor buzzing.
