i have a tusq nut on strat and my setup is holding the E bass string on 3rd fret i set at 0.10. 10 thous and on the high e its set at 0.06 6 thou. seems fine to me.

Nut height is really important. I have all my guitars set up and adjusted to my playing style. Have a good guitar tech do it or learn how to do it yourself. Whatever. Thanks for the vid John!

@seifs4 I had the same issue

I've got an un-related questions, recently I re-strung all the strings on my strat. I usually always did 1 string at a time but decided to take them all off at once. Now my vibrato bridge becomes all the way raised in order to get my guitar in tune.,....how do I fix this?
-
shouldnt filing of the nut require you you to file slot so that it falls away from leading edge (the edge next to fretboard) ?
-
On the feeler gauge, do you use the same mesurment 0.18" for all 6 strings?.

For the best understanding of Strat setup recommend to watch whole series at FruduaTV (check vids lower in the "suggestions" row). Superbly useful and extremely explanatory!

If the string height by the nut is very high, would you not need to readjust the tremolo after trimming the nut (raising it)?

@t0r3tr0 Possibly. Setup can be a slippery slope, with one adjustment leading to another and another until your are right back where you started. I wish we could have John Carruthers on staff here with his 45 years of experience; that would be awesome! In lieu of that, the best answer is going to come from a repair shop or from Fender directly, so we urge you to give one of them a call to be sure. (That's what we do for our own guitars.) Good luck to you!
