Hello out there!

I tried to adjust the action on my custom legend by taking out the shims at the bridge to lower the action at the 9-12 fret. The strings have really no more room to come down but i still want the action lower at the 9-12 fret. Should I adjust the neck more in the bow position?

In a word no!

How much neck relief do you have?

How high is the action?
