I want to have my ukulele set up but do not have a shop that can handle it in my area. I think only the strings need to be lowered a little. When I put the capo on fret 1 and slide a sheet of typing/printing paper between the string and the 2nd fret wire there was only a slight drag on the paper. So I think that the upper area is OK. At fret 12 the string is 5 maybe 6 mm above the fret board. Would lowering the distance to 3mm be about right? How low should I be able to go before worrying about string buzzing? I play a Kala Baritone Ukulele. Thank you
