Chris, I admire your initiative to set this guitar up yourself, but I recommend visiting a luthier and spending some time with him to work out the kind of setup you want. Generally speaking, it's kinda' rare that you just need to dork with the saddle. Usually, when it comes to that, you need some frets dressed or replaced, and neck and nut adjusted too. A luthier will likely have some tools to help with all this.

Anyway, just sharing my experience with you. If you're (way) more handy than I am, give it a go. :) I'd offer to take measurements on my JF-30-12, but I doubt that'd do you any good. Also, my JF-30-12 is with my luthier right now. ;)
