I just purchased a new American standard and noticed the neck plate has a fifth hole with no screw, what is this hole for, maybe a strap button?

The plate is labelled "Fender CORONA, CALIFORNIA" if that helps.

Apologies if this is a simple question, I only just started playing a few weeks ago and this is my first Fender, I love it so much. :)
 
Go carefully with Microtilt adjusters. You need to loosen the neck bolts a little before making any changes. If in doubt, give it to a pro.
The truss rod key you should have got in the case fits the adjuster
