Curious where others set the neck relief on their guitars. I have a SS and 594 and they both came with drastically different neck relief, with the SS @ .005” and the 594 @.010” . PRS suggests .005-.010” so they are both in that range but I guess I can’t figure out the optimal setting for my playing. Every tech I’ve brought it to sets the neck super flat and although I enjoy the easy playing, I feel tone and my ability to bend suffers so I end up adding a little relief so it’s closer to .010”
I tend to play blues rock with medium gain and do lots of bending and heavy vibrato. Does that style generally need more relief?
