I recommend to check the intonation with the bridge pickup selected because it's closest to the bridge and will pick up the pitch a bit more accurate than the other pickups.

I think you covered all the bases on this. It does get easier if it's something you do often. Ibanez and Jackson bridges are a breeze to intonate. Jackson JS32 neck is a touch flatter than Ibanez RG42 Wizard II neck.

Curious about the larger strings comment. It doesn't seem that circumference of the stings would change intonation (or be the factor). If you have a half inch pipe resting on two bars 25 inches apart putting on a three quarter pipe would still be 25 inches apart (from the contact points). I thought it would be more that the thicker strings have more tension so their pitch changes more drastically when bent toward the frets which in turn changes intonation. It also produces more strain on the neck, taking out more of the flatness of the neck and therefore increasing the distance between the string and finger board which alters intonation. But I'm just going on feel here. Also important to change the intonation when increasing or decreasing the action on the guitar. I find it important to do that a couple times a year as the wood gains and loses moisture in countries that have drastic temperature changes between summer and winter.

Hey Mark. Great question. Have a look at the description. One way that intonation is done is by setting the length of the low E by measuring the length of the string from the inside of the nut to where the string "breaks over the saddle and moving the saddle until the string is at 25.5" (in this case). The subsequent strings are set by the circumference of that specific string so if your A was a 32 you would move the saddle by .032" that to me indicates that the circumference of the string would affect the length. What you have to remember is that unlike a half inch pipe resting 25" apart it's not a straight line because of the break angle of the string over the saddle. That angle is where you need to measure from and it will change by the circumference of the new string. I think lol!

I always understood it as the more tension a string has, the more drastic the pitch change when the string is bent to the fret. But I could be wrong. It’s happened before, it’ll happen again. 😃

what to do if the saddle already hits the saddle and still it's not intonated? put a shim at the heel to increase string length?

why mine is on the same pitch of harmonic, open and pressed 12 fret but still when when you do full bend its flat instead of getting the wholestep note?

I find the G string (non Wound) on many "Strat's a pain to keep in tune. Is this common. Wound string not that much at all. Personally non wound.

Hi ! What about the turns of the string around the (short vintage) posts ... up in last 2 strings ( Low E and A ) ? .... I let the turns up in the post to alleviate tension ( better angle ) and keep things in tune all the fretboard ... and tune at 7 fret ( before I tune with open strings ... AND make wide bends to go to next step ) all strings ( B, E, A, D, F#, B ) to avoid sour Am, E Maj, C Maj chords. Let's say everything is in perfect "out of tune"/in tune ... fraction-wise speaking .... the same way specialized piano tuners do ... tension-gauge-length formula applies the same for electric/acoustic guitar too!

Hey you actually mentioned scale length, BRAVO! So set the low E saddle at 25.5" to start?

I bought my first electric guitar a week ago, a Squier Affinity Stratocaster. I tuned it and it stays in tune just fine, but when I'm playing a song (fingerstyle) I clearly hear that it plays out of tune. Should I check the intonation first or maybe I have to adjust the truss rod? What do you recommend?
@LucasCrossleyGuitar

I would check the into intonation for sure. Ima quick way is to tune the guitar. Play an open position chords like G A E D etc and play the same chord shape starting past the 12th fret. I show it in the video.

Hi,my string A no matter in what position are,always show on tuner proper results on harmonic,but when I press the Finger on #12 fret is soo Sharp, and is no more room to push back saddle anymore because the spring is overtight.

loosen the string and move the saddle forward a bit to give you room to move it back, always works for me

Will there be change in the action of the strings while intonating a strat with a floating bridge?
@LucasCrossleyGuitar
3 жыл бұрын
I have an S style guitar with a 2 point trem and it’s set to float. I think it could make a minor change but it would be pretty subtle. I doubt you would notice. I like the two point trem though because you can radius the saddles to match the fretboard then just raise and lower the bridge as you need.
@dipjyoti_guitar

@@LucasCrossleyGuitar well I checked again and found that the action has raised a little. After that I lowered all the saddles but could not get below 1.25mm on the low e at 12th fret. And accordingly matched the remaining with the radius of the fingerboard.

No I don’t think that’s necessary. It’s not a bad idea to check it from time to time though.

If I were a session guitarist I would worry about perfect intonation. I'm not, so I don't care to spend time precisely measuring and tuning the intonation. If my ears can't detect it going out of tune as I go up the fretboard that's good enough for me.
@LucasCrossleyGuitar

I guess it depends on how your ear is. For some, they have developed their ear through years of playing and can do this. New players, maybe not. So in that case, it’s helpful. To each their own.
