  • @Rtmax45 well if thats your preference, then go for it.. all I am saying is that out of anything that you can learn about your guitar, ajusting intonation is one of the simplest things =P

    I probably wouldn't adjust my own truss rod, because that is where you can really f@(k up.. but with this, the worse you could do is mess up a string (or if you don't know how to use a screwdriver, mess up your finish.. =P)..

    I wasn't trying to judge your experience =)

  • @woznotstoz I do know what he is talking about, but I have always had a pro tech do it. I have done intonation. I have a digital tuner, and chromatic tuner etc. I just don't want to fool around with the guitar other than keep it in tune. Now, my classical guitar needs the rod to be adjusted. I will take it to my guitar tech to check it, even though I know it needs adjustment. That's just my preference. I've been playing guitar a long time. Pros have messed up doing this.

  • Ehaa...that thar helped a lot.

    Need a link showing here tho bro...unless I missed it...lol

    Nice Vid

  • @allen764 same here man..

  • How high is the string has to be on the 12th fret?

  • @GoreRotDeath

    If you figure how to fix that problem, let me know. The same is going on with my Guitar. :(

  • Finally, a video that helped me.

  • Tune-O-Matic FML

  • I have a Les Paul that needs intonation set-up. I tried doing this, but the tuner always stayed near the same point no matter how much I turned the screw....

  • is this only for electric guitar?
