Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066		OK, I recently acquired one of these bad boys but I have a question. I know Al and CWK2 like them and probably can answer this for me.

How do you adjust the neck or shims??
The strings get pretty high off the neck around the 8th fret on up and I need to lower it by about a half.

Also, 2nd stupid question. Where is the damn battery in this thing and how do you get to it. Plugged in it sounds great and the OP24 electronics work just fine but pushing the battery button registers no response.

HELP!!!! :mad: :mad:

Location: 6 String Ranch		Neck adjustment is from inside. The battery is in there too somewhere. The saddle shims are under the pickup but it sounds like you need to adjust the neck warp first, then check the action.
