Intonation

Post by btomlinson »

My new RIC 360's intonation is way off. Kenny at RIC assured me that it was inspected. Every string is flat. I have to adjust myself. Has anyone else had this issue?

Brett, this thread appears to be relevant:

Thanks Gary. I adjusted the bridge height, pickup height and adjusted the intonation which was way off. This RIC is brand new. I even sent it back for a adjustment I thought I could not make and it still came back with a poor setup. It is much better now. Adjusting the intonation made all the difference.

Thanks everyone.

Things can and do shift during shipping, I usually plan on a quick intonation adjustment on any guitar I get shipped to me.
