Set the string height
Adjust the bridge action using the thumbwheels on bass and
treble sides. Measure the gaps between the bottom of the
low and high E strings and the top of the 12th fret.
Factory action for the high at the 12th fret is 1/16" for the
high E string, and 5/64" for the low E.
Set the intonation
The last step is intonating the guitar by adjusting the string
lengths at the bridge saddles. This will help ensure that the
guitar plays in tune all the way up the neck.
Remove the generic strings and install the higher quality set.
Tune the strings to pitch using a strobe or other accurate
tuner. Then, press the high E string lightly at the 12th fret
with just enough pressure on the fret to sound the note.
Check it with your tuner.
If the note reads flat, the saddle needs to be adjusted forward
towards the nut, shortening the length of the string. If the
note reads sharp, the saddle needs to be adjusted back away
from the nut, increasing the string length.
Adjust the pickup height
One at a time, hold the low and high E strings down at the
22nd fret.
Adjust the neck pickup to 1/16" between the bottoms of the
low and high E strings and the top of the pole pieces. Adjust
the bridge pickup to 3/32".
