Read thru the jemsite --> guitar --> Tech Setup area for setup help that will apply also to the 555. Good luck... glen

thanks for the reply. I have located the tech setup info, but the thing is that i do not know the technical terms of what i am supposed to do. could you direct me to the exact article of the component i will have to mess with to lower the strings? Thanks

Take a properly sized wrench and turn the trem posts clockwise to lower the action. Check your tuning and check for buzz.
