Dunno, and with me having mild CP in both my hands, I'm not about to chance doing it myself, anyway.

I’ve never played around with one of them. But i’d imagine the screws would be there on the back of the bridge.

Generally i much prefer a guitar tech to do this work. But i have gotten myself out of trouble. What sort of guitar do you have, if it’s a stratt or Tele, there are 6 little screws on the back of the bridge. These adjust the string length. So normally what i do is hit the string open, and then play the harmonic on the 12th fret, and compare the pitch of the two notes. I think a tuner would make it easy for a sighted person. If the harmonic is flat, then get a little screw driver and turn the screw clockwise, and the oppersit way if it’s sharp. But you won’t need to turn it much, maybe an 8th of a turn or less. How ever having said that, if you have never been shown how to do this, may be best to get some sighted assistance first from someone who’d done this before. There may be lots of reasons why the intonation is out, yes the harmonics will help, and are very much a part of the set up. but it could be something to do with a nec adjustment swell. I don’t play around with that at all. Steve n 2 Jan 2016, at 9:22 am, Christopher-Mark Gilland <[email protected]> wrote: I'm not sure how I'd play with the harmonics though. I'm a fairly beginner guitarest. I mean, as you all've heard in some of my recordings I've sent the list, I can get by, but that's about it.

Have you tried playing around with the harmonics on the guitar itself. That may get you out of trouble until you can get it looked at properly. I think you said it’s an electric guitar is that right. I’ve set the internasion on guitars before when in trouble, and i’ve got the job done.

For some reason, my 3rd G string and also on some occasions my 2nd B string keeps going out of tune. It's not a matter of retune it though. If I do, then certain chords, like E, or G sound fine, or A, even, but if I play a D chord, then, ewwww! Gross! the G string, and the B string are totally flat. More so my G string. No, these are not wound strings. Anyway, my suspicion is that I probably have an intonation problem going on here. I plan to take the guitar into a shop and have 'em look at it, but in the mingtime, my question is, if I was to pop auto-tune on that guitar track, would that make it sound worse, or could I effectively use that and maybe get the thing more in tune? I mean, I know it theoretically would work, but do you think it would sound unnatural, or is it hard to say? Is there maybe a better way until I can get this thing looked at that I maybe could tackle this?
