Great video. One thing I haven’t heard you mention yet though, and something I’ve found with my guitars, is a little buzzing, when fretting acoustically, doesn’t always mean that it’ll buzz, when amplified. My Tele plays beautifully when amplified, all the way up the neck, but when played unplugged, I get a bit of buzzing on my low E.

Yes, you would use the pick capo on the Low E and High E when adjusting string action. In the flow, string height comes before nut height. The measurements we have are based on using the pick capo at the first fret. Since the nut has not been addressed yet you would be using a height reference point that could be off. The first fret is a fixed height to adjust from.

How much you adjust/turn the truss rod depends on how far off the relief is. There is no rule of the thumb on how much to turn the truss rod to achieve the proper relief for your guitar. Using our gauge and KISS setup method allows you to see how much or how little relief you have. Use smaller adjustments, 1/8" - 1/4" turns then measure until your reach the proper relief measurement listed on the gauge for your instrument. Email tech@musicnomad.com for more information.

If starting with a brand-new Tele 3-saddle bridge, is it good practice to set the saddles to the middle of their run on the intonation screws, to allow plenty of forward and backward adjustability during setup? Also, along the same lines, is there a good starting position as to saddle height, prior to setting for correct high and low e-string height, and neck radius, as part of setting up of a Tele the 1st time? I can't seem to find anywhere, those basic very general starting points for a brand-new, never installed Tele bridge.

There is no starting point, it comes out of the factory already setup. You will want to use the KISS method along with the gauges and tools to check the setup out of the factory and then you can dial it in more from there if you need too.

In the KISS method the nut height is the last step because its a linear process and all the previous steps are using a fixed reference point at the 1st fret so if your nut height slots are incorrect it doesnt change the other measurements and adjustments you made in the previous steps. If you start with the nut height and cut your slots first you are not cutting your nut slots based off the proper measurements from the previous steps.
