Height of strings

gibson factory settings are higher on bass 5/64" to 3/64" on treble, both at 12th fret.

fender factory settings have both sides the same height, 4/64" at 17th fret.

think again about the fretboard radius.. they are different..

tell that to dan erlewine, cos its straight from his book.
and that is the reason why bridge saddles are radiused.

Yeap... doesn't come out of the amp, its okay.

Its normal for the steel strings to rattle against the metal frets.

its kind of irritating though.. seems to get worse if i use Eb tuning

Then up your string gauge or use a guitar with a longer scale. :)
