sonrisa vertical Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 OK, I just put together my first frankenstrat. Bassically a used Squier body with a brand new Mighty Might neck and a Gohto Two point tremolo bridge. I have been trying to adjust the intonation according with various tutorials I gather on the web but cannot seem to get the proper intonation. I was wondering if I need to do some prep on the nut as well. The nut is the one incluided and already install with the MM neck. The action is OK, just the tunning seem wrong. When the open strings are in-tune, the freted ones aren't. And vice versa. I will greatly appreciate all your tips on the subject. Thanks Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is 25.5" then measure from the fretboard side of the nut to a saddle on the trem where the string makes contact and see how close that is to the scale length of the neck.
