Trem height trouble...


Hey guys, I recently bought (ordered) a 2005 JS1000 BP. I noticed it was not set up real well so I had the dealer set the trem angle and all that fun stuff but never thought to ask him to adjust the over all string height. When I got it back home I noticed it was still abit higher than I like and since this is my first guitar with this style of trem I figured I'd read up abit before attempting any adjustments. Everything I have found says that there is a small 1.5mm set screw that anchors the stud bolt down to the body that needs to be loosened before making any adjustments to the trem but I cannot find it anywhere. It appears that it should be able to be accessed right through the stud bolt but mine are covered over with a gold type of plating with an extremly small hole that none of the wrenches I got with the guitar will not even come close to fitting into. I was just curious if this is something that may have changed in 2005 models or if I'm just missing something and not looking in the correct spot at all. Thanks for any info guys.

the guitars with edge pros (2003 or newer, i think, i don't know my years on for that) do not have stock trem posts with set screws. that design was for the lo pro edge which was the design before the edge pro. you only need the allen wrench that fits the hole you can see in the stud. i believe it's a 2mm or 2.5mm.. can't remember for sure
