This is a great tutorial! I just got the same guitar on Reverb and the action was tragic. This helped me get it playable. Thanks so much.

Amazing - thanks for the video! Did not know about the micro-tilt on the neck

Great tutorial. I just ordered the American All Mahogany Tele. It comes with 11’s which I play on my Martin’s but I may want to change to 10’s on the Tele. I wonder how that would affect the action. I would assume if it comes with too much relief, 10’s would straighten the neck and give less relief without a truss rod adjustment. Thx.

Typically every guitar needs a setup from the factory. Just due to shipping. Not only that, but from California to wherever it’s going. The climate may be different. If you change the strings, which you’ll want to do anyway because no telling how low long it was sitting in a warehouse. But going down in size, you may want to loosen the truss rod. In any case. Enjoy the heck out of that! Thanks for watching!

I'm going to attempt the height adjustment with the tilt screw like you did. I heard you say yours was originally at 9/64 which you called atrocious but I didn't catch what the recommended height spec is. Can you please tell me what you set yours to? This is a very pretty well built guitar, but being made in Mexico I'm guessing they didn't put much time into setup. Also I'd like to lower the action on the headstock end as well. Will I have to use my nut files or do they make an easy setup adjustment for that end as well? And I'm going to try a lighter gauge string because I'm used to lights and don't like the feel of the heavy gauge it came with. Do you have any suggestions on what tool to use to pull the bridge pins out with no to minimal damage to the bridge? The peg puller end of my string winder tool always seems to put a slight dent in the bridge of my cheaper guitar but I don't want to mar this one up. Great information and excellent video. There doesn't seem to be much out there on how to set one of these up. I appreciate you taking the time to post. This will help me a lot!

Great video! I can't seem to get the tilt function to lower the action. Any help? Might it need some WD40?

@stringmanguitars4329 3 ай бұрын

Is your relief correct before you tried the tilt? Also you need to release the string tension and about a half a turn out of each neck screws.

@@stringmanguitars4329 Thanks for getting back to me! I got it a little lower with the tilt yesterday but I think I'll have to check the relief! I'll have to see if I can do that.
