Interesting Intonation Article

[GuitarGuy]

Found this interesting explanation of intonation, and compensated nut. And some measurements for them, mind you its a classical guitar but its interesting none the less.

Intonation

[Mattia]

Couple of other articles of interest, the first two also for steel string builders in particular:

Stephen Delft's compensated nut theory and how-to

Mike Doolin's series of articles on compensation, theory and practice

Greg Byers on classical guitar intonation

[Mike Sulzer]

That is a very good article; I really like the esplanation of travel stretch versus fretting stretch, and how fretting stretch is compenstaed for at the nut.
