"Hi this is Bill Macpherson for Expert Village we're going to continue on now with the rest of the strings and intonating this guitar. And same thing we're going to do an open A, tune it up, perfect tuning, right there. Now we're going to fret it at the 12 fret and again this one is sharp quit a bit, so we're going to make an adjustment. Loosen the string the A and make an adjustment to the saddle, loosen the string a little more. And just slide it back, tightened it down, now we're going to tune the string back up, lock down the nut again, check the tuning of the open string again, and now we're going to check it at the 12 fret again and I can see it's perfect."
