Yeah, I've heard. You could probably either lower the bridge or put extra lights on them. I did that once and it works itself in...
yes, but then you'd be playing extra lights, and those sound like shit
Indeed, I was also going to say adjusting the bridge can cost $$$

You say that everytime I bring it up. :x

I own one, I think I can make that determination, thank you very much. Action is also something very easy and inexpensive to change should you not like it. I liked learning how to play on a D-15 (with a higher action), as this built my fingers up stronger more quickly. Also, if you've played a 2003 D-15, Martin has started shipping them from factory with much lower actions, so your complaint doesn't apply anymore.
