I have a made in Mexico Fender HSS Stratocaster guitar with a humbucker and it sounds great...but I want to change the string action on the guitar to get the strings a little closer to the fretboard.

Looking at the Fender manual it gives the settings for the string action for each type of Strat....simply put do I use the one for the Strat. that list humbucker settings?

The reason that I'm not quite sure is that the Fender manual doesn't list the Strats Mexican or American with humbuckers in a separate spot. So I'm assuming that when Fender lists humbucker it means both?

thank you, your help is appreciated

Hey Ace, you can follow the guidelines in the manual. Whether your Strat was made in Mexico or USA or has a humbucker is not an issue with respect to adjusting string height. Go for it! :)

yes, you can adjust the string height and action through the saddles
there are 2 screws to each saddles
you just need a matching helen key
they comes with the guitar
