Intonation & Set up

Post by Moustache_Bash »

Could you guys/gals link me some good vids that would help me set up my guitar? I pretty much got a handle on everything, except filing a nut for bigger strings and adjusting the saddles appropriately to the radius.

Take it to a good Luthier. Those should run you like 30 bucks to have done. You can file the nut yourself, but you might not have as expert of hands as them. Plus if they do it, it's on them if they fuck up.
