Hey All,
Just got my Am Std (2000) back from the tech. He did a great job on the nut and wiring, but the action just isn't what I think it should be.
His method is to set the trem so the G goes 1/2 step up when you pull back, which set the bridge below 3/32". I asked him about the factory setting (according to Dan's book) of 1/8" he thinks that's too high. Any-rate, the neck buzzes pretty good, even a little through the amp, which is absolutely no good! I think I'm sacraficing good tone for low action. (He had the action on my LP too low as well.)
SO...before I go through with fret leveling. What is the consensus (I'm sure that's a loaded question) on bridge height? I've already relieved the neck a hair, but I need the proper size hex-key for saddle adjustment.
Thanks.
