less relief / flatter = lower action
more relief / bow = higher action
do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your guitar...

Excellent. Like mine but a burst rather than a 'fade'. Love them sparklies!

Burnt apple is a dark red into black kinda burst is it not?

Nice colour and great pic! Congratulations!


Regarding the colour: Burnt Apple is a bit like Black Cherryburst with sparkles but not translucent. And that looks like Autumn Redburst. See the colours thread in the stickies.
