    Frustrating Intonation Issues On New 594

    Hi Alnus - it's better, but my ear definitely hears what the strobe is confirming that the pitch is still off. Thanks for your support.

    Frustrating Intonation Issues On New 594

    Thanks! I just did that - the bass side was much higher - and that helped the intonation overall, and yet with the E, A, and D saddles all the way back, the 12th fret is still sharp on my Peterson StroboStomp.

    Frustrating Intonation Issues On New 594
