I'm fiddling again with my JP6 to get the action perfect (straight neck, low action, minimal buzz).

After reading every post on this topic (including the FAQ), I'm still unsuccessful :(

So this time I'll start with the bridge/saddle height first and then slowly add relief to the neck to minimize buzz around frets 5-9.

But before I start, could any of you JP6 owners take a glance at this pic and let me know if the bridge height is ok? It's about 1/2 a mm above the body:

The bridge on my JP is flush with the body. My action is 3/64" on the treble side and 4/64" on the bass side. No buzz anywhere.

I try and set them up with the bridge level with the body. Then adjust the saddles.
