I bought off EB, beautiful instrument and great sound but the action was high for me 3mm @12th. I took it to my luthier with 50+ years experience and he said there was no room to lower the action, would take a neck reset. I called Cheryl and she quickly handed off the Mike who set it up. He all but insulted my luthier just because I said he worked on all stringed instruments including electrics. In the end he said to send it back, at my expense which I understood when I made the purchase.
My old Lanikai was able to be set up with much lower action.
I get why he would send it out with not-so-low action but with no room at the saddle to bring it down?
I don't think I will be recommending Mele if anyone asks.
I decided to keep it and live with it but still feel like Mele pulled a fast one on me.
