Seagull S6 Quantum I [4.9 lbs] :: setup

A Canadian built Seagull acoustic in for some tweaks.  After straightening the neck, the saddle had to be shimmed up to improve the action.  There is an undersaddle pickup so any modifications to the saddle require the consistent string-to-string output be verified and corrected if necessary.

2007 Seagull S6 Slim Dread [4.7 lbs] :: lower saddle & cut string ramps in bridge

2007 Seagull S6 Slim Dread [4.7 lbs] :: lower saddle and cut string ramps in bridge.

The action was lowered by straightening the excessive relief in the neck via the truss rod and lowering the saddle.  With such low saddle exposure above the bridge, I had to cut string ramps to increase the downward pressure of the strings to prevent buzzes and help drive the top.
