Do i have to make any adjustments if i change the strings on my american standard stratocaster to .10 gauge? ?

I recently bought a american standard stratocaster and i know the factory specs are set up for .09 gauge strings. are there any adjustments i need to make to the springs and bridge and if so how do i do this.Do i have to make any adjustments if i change the strings on my american standard stratocaster to .10 gauge? ?
Hello! Anytime you change string gauges you need to check the intonation, floating bridge position, and truss rod adjustments. Your American Standard probably did come with 9檚, so going up to 10檚 will most likely require some tweaking. Check out http://www.fender.com/support/stratocast for details on making these tweaks. Also, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GD7zXzkr has a decent visual on making truss rod adjustments on Stratocasters. None of this is rocket science, so don檛 be afraid!

Sometimes you do. But you need to check either way just in case. The intonation and the truss rod. Heavier strings may cause more neck tension and may cause it to bow a bit.
You can go from .08s to .11s without changing any of that. Lighter gauge= more treble, more bend. Heavier gauge= stay in tune better, more warmth.
No but 9's are better by far
you're gold.
