Re: 330/12 Intonation problem

Just saw the new posts. I've finally found a happy compromise. The G is the biggest offender so I tune it so when fingering at the 2nd fret it's in tune the way I like it. I've also stopped using the electronic tuner for all the strings. I get a much better result by getting the low E correct and t...

Re: 330/12 Intonation problem

A follow up. Although the intonation is much improved the G and B string are still a off. If you tune either pair of string when open they are out of tune starting at the second fret. Do I need a 12 string bridge or more filing down of the nut? I'm probably going to take it to a different guitar tec...

Chaging registration

The store from which I bought my 330/12 last year had registered the guitar for some reason. Is there a way to switch it over to my name?

Although the strings are dead on in tune open or at the 12th fret (harmonics too) as one plays up the neck from the nut the strings go out of tune. The third fret seems to be the worst. It is audibly and visually (tun...
