TL DIY KIT MANUAL

Once the desired action is achieved, all that remains is to set the intonation.

After tuning up all the strings, you just have to gently touch a string, right

above the twelfth fret and then pick the string. The resulting chime-like

sound is a harmonic (12th fret harmonic). This harmonic should have the

same pitch as when the string is pressed at the twelfth fret. If the pitch of the

two notes differs, adjust the saddle for this string back or forth on the

bridge. Listen carefully and adjust gently until the two notes match, to

achieve correct intonation. Repeat this procedure on all strings until the har-

monics and the fretted notes sound the same.

Please also remember that over time, slight adjustments may need to be

made and different gauges of strings will need compensating for in the

setup.

The pickup height can now be adjusted for best performance and can be

balanced by adjusting the screws at the top and bottom of each pickup. As

a general rule, hold down the strings at the 22nd fret and adjust so that the

strings are at least 2 mm clear of the pickup. Any pickups that are notice-

ably louder than others can be made quieter by adjusting them further

away from the strings.

For future adjustments, keep these instructions as a reference and enjoy

your custom made guitar.
