I usually set pickup height by ear and by feel, but if there are adjustable pole pieces I've sat with the guitar DI'd into my computer and used a level meter in a DAW, fine adjusting with a screwdriver until the strings are all pretty even within the realms of a moderately strong picked note. You'll always be able to get a slightly louder note out of the bigger strings, assuming roughly equal tension strings, but it's not impossible to get a pretty even output for general playing if there are adjustable pole pieces - no need for special strings
@John_A That one was new on me. I'll have to try it on my other guitars, but it didn't "skronk" for me as nicely as the good-old-fashioned EVH elephant.
Perhaps not solely, @Cabicular. People who drop €4K+ on an LP often want a Gibson. Gibson don't do TT fretwork. And their buyers are probably more worried about the hide glue and the length of the neck tenon than the intonation...
But my point was that the only brand I can think of that offer TT frets on "semi-affordable" stock guitars is VGS.
Even that said, this is still three grand:

Otherwise you're looking at a custom build (if the builder will even work with TT, *strandberg is one that will), or a retrofit, which is really pricy...
