I put a new set of strings on my low down Sally.
Tuned it up and play for a while.
Retuned, etc,,,,,.
Today I tuned it again and checked the intonation.
E - minus 22 cents.
A - minus 9 cents.
D - Plus 5 cents.
G - minus 17 cents.
Before I check it I knew it was off. So, for a lack of anything better to do, I recorded some scales from open strings up to the end of the fretboard.
Then I set in intonation and is sounded so wonderful, the cheap Dean Razor slut she is.
I recorded the same three minutes of scales from all over the neck.
What a difference.
I also replaces some pots in my bass amp and tightened a few gizmos up.
It's like a new rig.
I doubt any of you guy are as happy about this as I am, but I figured I'd tell ya anyway.
Just to remind some of you, to check your intonation now and then. Fifteen to twenty minutes can make a world of difference in the sound.
