When the bridge is set flushed against the body, it is necessary to check the action. In this case the default action for my American Special Strat was readjusted & the unexpected entailment was the 'disappearance' of those height adjustment screw bits which were previously jutting out. So now the picking hand rests comfortably over the bridge saddles. Fantastic!
Upon setting up, make sure the radius arch complies to the fret radius to prevent choked notes. Someone pointed out the fact that if there is an ideal arch to be observed, shouldn't both the E-string saddles be of the same height? Of course not, the action for both these strings are different, yes? It's due to the fact that one of them is plain, while the other is wound- different thickness. That's the reason.

it's hard for a beginner like me to find that "optimum" action heights for my GAX010LTD (referring to ur 5-part setup entries last time) sometimes meddling for a full hour
i guess TOM bridge on VMNTx (and ex-kelly) are easier to meddled with :)
that's usually the case bro- we tinker for hours just to get that 'best' feel.
