I have just bought an Epiphone and no matter how much I move the saddle for the 6th string back or forward, the harmonic never quite sounds the same as the 12th fret note.
The best position is as far back as it will go - it sounds like it wants to a bit further back if anything. Any ideas much app j -------------------- Macbook Pro 2 ghz/15"/10.3.4/1 g RAM/x2 monitors/Logic Pro 7.2/Ableton Live 5.0/Reason 3/Fireface 800/PSP Vintage Warmer/Roland JD800/Roland SH101/Arturia Moog Modular/Epiphone Firebird 7/Guitar Rig/Dynaudio BM5a monitors.

Indebttome!
Surely you can reasonably demand that the music store selling you a new guitar - take the time and effort to check the intonation - and return faulty instruments to the manufacturer.  If I buy a second hand piece of gear I do expect the seller to - in all decency - to tell me about those defects he/she may know about.  When the warranty-period on a new piece of guitar has expired - it becomes my resposibility fix the intonation.  Yes - you are correct that new strings/other brands of strings - may - make a huge difference.  Cheers: Dixiechicken -------------------- ==================
