Please Help with Intonation on CIJ Jazzmaster

Post by liams_coke_dealer »

Hey peeps.

Do u know any good websites with instructions on how to set the itonation on a CIJ Jazzmaster. It has a USA Jag Bridge on it. not that it should matter much :)

or even if its so easy maybe just type it down?

Thanks!

Seriously.

Google is your friend

The Jazzmaster is not special It is intonated like any other guitar.

YouTube is also your friend

You move the saddles until it's intonated correctly, and that's basically it.

get a digital tuner.
or a strobe.
tune it open, tune it at the octave, move the saddle accordingly.
presto, its done, otherwise give it to a tech to do for you.

if you need to take it to tech to sort the intonation, kill yourself.

If you can't use a screwdriver, you're a useless cunt.

Will a tech help me tune my guitar? It's been out of tune for weeks, where do I find out how to do that? Can I find that on the internets? :D
