Adjust the Action (String Height) on Ibanez SR405QM

Introduction

If you need to change the height of your strings on your Ibanez SR405QM, follow this guide. The height of your strings greatly affects the playing of the instrument. If the strings are too high, it may be difficult to finger the notes with your left hand, and certain techniques like fingerstyle (tapping) maybe be overly difficult. If the strings are too low, they may hit the fretboard producing distasteful sounds.
