Setup info and instructions from the Gibson website - http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Support/TechSupport/Repair%20Columns/Basic-Guitar-Setup/

 

Regarding the Stop/Tailpiece - The height of the stopbar tailpiece is personal preference - the lower the tailpiece, the more sustain—the higher, the less sustain. For the most sustain> To get the sharpest break angle, adjust the Stop to the lowest point at which none of the strings touch the back edge of the bridge.

 

Gibson factory specs - .10 gauge strings; string heights -

1st fret- treble side - 1/64"

1st fret- bass side - 2/64"

12th fret- treble side - 3/64"

12th fret - bass side - 5/64"
