Hi,I'm a newbie to this forum with a love of everything Fender.My latest Fender instrument is a Fender custom shop 64 jazz bass relic that I bought new nearly 6 years ago.Recently I restrung it with a heavier gauge set of strings and wondered if anyone could share any tips on how to set up the bass,truss rod and string height etc to bring it back to maximum playability?With thanks,Paul.

Welcome to the Forum Paul !
When I have replaced strings on any of my bass guitars with a heavier gauge there is a time factor of up to a week before the guitar settles in and a set-up will take. So, stick with it, make adjustments as needed until it plays the way you like.
