To a certain extent, yes... You do this by slightly increasing the truss rod tension and shaving down the saddle.. Overdoing it will cause excessive fret buzz and bad intonation... You can get this done professionally at any respectable guitar shop around town though... Price is <100 i think..

yes u can..
if your acoustic guitar has truss rod..u can twist it a bit(clockwise).. if not...take out the saddle and sand paper it a bit.. u can do this by yourself actually...its easy.. |
