CS reissue neck angles

[sunking101]

I know that these angles vary but lately I am seeing much higher bridges on 2020/21 reissues.
Is this the norm now?

These five guitars are all from the same retailer and all brand new.

As in the same thread you posted on the other forum, you won’t get a single meaningful answer without anyone knowing your string action and neck relief. You have several replies on the other forum already

Neck relief zero. Action 1.5mm at the 12th base side and 1.2mm treble.

Do you have a shot of the guitar your asking about? Thanks for the set up specs.

the distance from the bottom of my thumbwheels to the deck is 3/8" and I sleep well at night ... I try not to obsess about small details . that's all I got

I like that actually. If the pitch is too shallow, the strings may scrape the pickup rings and you have to lower the pickups ever so slightly lower than the bridge pickup ring. That also means the guitar plays weird up past the 12th fret. None of that makes me happy.

Look up pictures of Jimmy Pages #1 Burst, his bridge is way up there and the PAFs rise clear from the rings nicely.

Looks very close to my 2018
