Not sure what guitar you have, but if they have a Nashville, the TP needs to be higher as the footprint of that bridge it's much larger than an ABR1, so if you keep the TP all the way down, the strings would hit the back of the bridge. Custom shop seems not caring of that, and they are shipping guitars with a Nashville bridge, with TP all down. At the USA plant they are raising the TP to avoid contact with the bridge.i was lookin at my Beauty Of The Burst book last night, looks like all the tails are slammed all the way down. why arent they like that anymore? my 08 and 2016 both were/are raised. sup with that? different hardware?
Best advice imo is to completely remove the possibility of bridge collapse and strings touching the back of the bridge ,...by topwrapping. Some folks claim the strings touching the back of the bridge isn’t a problem, they may be right, I don’t know.

What I do know is that’s unwanted pressure on the bridge toward the neck and is not optimal.

When I first started playing (late '80s), I always had a thing for those Custom Lites. Really cool to see one all these years later!
