Leckie Gilman Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 right, on les-paul bridges theres like two main bits: a. the bit that the strings go through and lock ontob. and the bit that has the string saddles on it.i recently restrung my les-paul and i think i put the part with the saddles on the wrong way round and the intonation appears to be wrong.hmmmmmmmmso theres 6 little screws that adjust the saddles. which way do they face? towards the neck or away from the neck. currently they are facing the neck.so anyway is it the wrong way around or what?cheers.
