less relief / flatter = lower action
more relief / bow = higher action
do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your guitar...

I dunno, the GC's by me do not have any Ernie Ball flats, so I am not too hopeful on them getting coated strings any time soon.

They just got some in as we speak. 50s I will have to wait until they get some lighter ones in. Are they making them in extra super slinky 40s?

Yes, they were all recorded on a Sterling By Music Man SB14 (a Sterling). I simply changed strings and used the same settings.
