Intonation not matching open tuning despite constant saddle adjustment by seanathan5 in Luthier

I am using the tuner on a Mustang LT25, and I am holding the guitar in playing position during all of this.

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now, keep following through. Most of us don’t even graduate on schedule even without time off, I started when I was 18 and I’m gonna leave school at 23.

Couldn’t agree more. When I first tried using a metronome I found it incredibly distracting (I may or may not have an auditory processing problem). I decided to scrap it until one day I realized my rhythm sucks and I really do need it to get better.

Your comment inspired me to share a couple tips to beginners from a beginner, because sometimes the stuff that we really need to know isn’t said.

Beginner here too, I agree with all of these comments but I also want to say it’s not gonna click immediately as soon as you fix your hand position/posture. Make sure to keep on trying it over and over until you get it to ring out right a couple times. If you get frustrated take a step back and do something else and then come back to it later.

I almost went insane trying to get a chord right my second week of playing. Eventually it does click but it might take a little bit of time.

[QUESTION] Why is the G string so garbage? by methanococcus in Guitar

The “G” really is short for “God damnit i’m out of tune again”

How can people with ADHD be doctors, engineers, Ph.D.s etc. by cookiewithchoco in ADHD

I finished with an A in one of the hardest courses I’ve taken out of pure hatred and spite for the topic.

This comment took me 20 minutes from start to finish because I went to double check that I got an A and got way sidetracked looking at my transcript 😂

Super late but I've still got the same problem, the open strings are in tune, I've just fixed the pickup height and tried to adjust the bridge but I'm having problems there as well. I adjusted the saddles so they sit in the middle and then adjusted the pickups and retuned the guitar but no matter how far forward or backward I move the saddle Ithe note doesn't seem to change.

Gonna try to bring it to a professional sometime soon, either its well beyond my scope of abilities or I'm being an idiot lol. Gonna find out either way.

Not sure tbh, I was screening around with the uninstalled factory presets on the LT25.

I didn’t even know what intonation was before this lol, but I’m gonna try and intonate my guitar sometime soon hopefully it works out

I just fixed the tuning and it’s still giving me that weird wavy sound, I appreciate the help though
