Buzzkill walks you through every setup step in order, each assessed against targets specific to your guitar model, string gauges and tuning.
Factory setups survive shipping and shelf time, not to play well — safe and sometimes uninspiring to play.
Drop tunings, hybrid string sets, varying radiuses and scale lengths — today’s players need setups matched to real specs.
Wood moves with the seasons, strings settle, and tunings change — a setup that felt perfect last month can drift without warning.
Neck relief, action, nut and pickup height are decided by fractions of a millimetre — “feel” alone can benefit from real numbers.
A proper setup can run over $100 and mean weeks without your guitar — if you can find a tech who knows your guitar.
Old forum threads, countless YouTube videos — it’s hard to know which advice actually applies to you.
Inspired by TRAIN — Tuning, Relief, Action, Intonation, Nut — the trusted sequence techs use, Buzzkill guides each adjustment so it builds on one that's already correct.
Precise measurements recommended across all checks — calculated from your exact guitar specifications, not a generic chart.
Get adjustment guidance specific to your guitar model so you know exactly what to turn and by how much — plus the industry quick checks techs use.
