Intonation adjustment is the operation of adjusting
the location of the string at the saddle to
compensate for different tuning. Follow the
instructions of the particular bridge intonation
below. Intonation is properly set when the 12th
fret note and the 12th fret harmonic are exactly
the same note. This is the center point of the scale
and the most accurate way of setting a standard scale length. With the harmonic note as the
standard, if the fretted note is flat move the bridge saddle forward toward the headstock (a) to
decrease the string length. If the fretted note is sharp, move it back away from the headstock
(b) to increase the string length intonation adjustments.
* Please note that strings can be broken when the saddle is moved, so always loosen the strings before making adjustment.

The saddles are locked on the base plates by the lock screw (A). To adjust the saddle, loosen
the saddle lock screw (A) before adjustment. The string height is controlled with a 1.5mm Allen
wrench to raise or lower the Allen screw on the saddle. The intonation can be adjusted by
moving saddle forward or backward with a Philips head (+) screwdriver on the adjustment
screw at the rear of the bridge. After adjustment, lock the lock screw (A).
The strings are installed by sliding the boll end into the boll end pocket.

The output level of the instrument as well as the quality
of the signal can be affected by the pickup height. Pickup
height should be adjusted until the volume of neck and
bridge pickups are almost equal with both volumes wide
open. The volume may drop drastically if the pickup
height is too low. As the pickups are magnetic, fret
buzzing and distortion may occur if the pickup is too close
to the strings. Use a small screwdriver to make adjustments to raise or lower the pickup.
* Instruments that have adjustable pole pieces can be adjusted to balance the output of each string.
