I have a Tele Deluxe Squier I paid all of $300 new 4 years ago and it’s my only guitar that never went to my tech for a set up due to super low action all the way up the fretboard. I’ve never had to try to adjust the truss rod as the neck relief hasn’t budged the whole time, perhaps due also to 9-42 strings/ lower tension. Even still, action at the first fret isn’t as soft as it could be. My tech would file the nut slots ever so slightly and the action up the fretboard would also be adjusted to be more usuable (not so low). I post this for the novice: have or find a good guitar tech who knows the fine art of nut slot adjustment.
