Thats uh...quite intricate...I just have mine setup how I like it, neck as flat as I can get it without getting excess buzz, strings low but not too low, pickups fairly high and close to the strings (I've always used em as a ramp).
I gots DiMarzio Will Power on mine...friggin loudest bass I've ever played and so sensitive to the touch you can feather the string and give it a little gliss and it responds so well.

'76 Fender P

Dunno to all your questions. However, original bridge was in the wrong poistion. I moved it. Then I stuck a Badass II bridge on it for 30 years (my fault) - recently returned the stock bridge. Curious thing is the intonation is better! Explain that if you can. And yes I know how to set the intonation.

The neck is dead straight to my eye.

I wish it was a 60's P though! It might get played more.
