Ibanze accoustic action too high

[Chung126]

I have a Ibanze accoustic the action is too high in higer fret,

but the neck pretty straight.

 

I see the instruction booklet that I can adjust by

"sanding the bottom of the saddle down"

 

but i cannot understand...

 

do anyone explain to me how?

thanks!

a brief description from me:
tape a piece of sandpaper (i usually use around 150 or 220 grit) down to a table. figure out how much you want to lower the action. double that number. if it's 1/32" then you'll want your number to be 2/32". mark that on the bottom part of your saddle. sand it down to that line. be careful to keep the saddle bottom flat on the paper. install saddle back onto guitar. play and enjoy.
if you sand too far you'll get buzzing. so be careful.
saddles aren't too expensive though if you mess up..
