    I so agree with you on the proper fret level and dressing. The big box stores also do wonderful things like crappy leveling without releasing the truss. I can go on for days.
    Every LP I do, always stays in tune. I use bone for the most parts.

    As a guitar beginner few years ago, I noticed that the last frets are in the way of getting a very low action. I thought of dressing them down, but because I could not find any confirmation, I supposed it is a flaw in this idea. Then I‘d seen a YT- vid about this and started doing it to all my guitars. Happy now!
    Later I casted a compensated nut out of brass- big improvement in tone and intonation👌🏼 The slots are curved, lubed, and have contact with the strings the last third of the width

    I do one thing nobody talks about when I set intonation or change strings I lightly tap each bridge saddle forward till it's stops so they don't rock back and forth a small amount like they are prone to do when tuning. Just a little tip. One thing is to put a small angel in the back of each nut slot to help relieve the steep angle of the d and g string my Gibsons stay in tune well enough for me.

    Just got my first Les Paul. I noticed the high e string frets 17-22 go slightly sharp when fretting. I previously adjusted the neck to minimal relief and raised the action to 4/64 treble and 5/64 bass. It was super low from the factory and have no instruction for the proper tension of the stopbar. I had to turn the high e saddle around for intonation and to gain clearance, it has an abr1. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    • @StringTechWorkstations
      @StringTechWorkstations  День тому

      Turning the saddle around to squeeze out the intonation is a common move on that type of bridge. Unlike the Tele / Strat bridges where you have double the amount of travel, to line things up.

    • @StringTechWorkstations
      @StringTechWorkstations  2 роки тому +3

      They are a good addition once all of the calibration and regulation is done for the intonation . Once that is accomplished and your guitar is actually in tune across the entire fingerboard; THEN the locking tuners come into play, KEEPING the guitar in tune.

      It's true .... the longer Fender scale is much more forgiving than the 24 5/8" Gibson scale ( especially with chords ) . Although a Gibson with a compensated nut is even more accurate than a stock Fender.

    Hey Mike I got two questions for you, when you check for the hump at the end of the fretboard, do you straighten the neck first then check or check with some relief in the neck? Also If nut slots are cut to deep can that cause buzzing even on fretted notes? I know the second one may sound silly but I respect your opinion.

    • @StringTechWorkstations
      @StringTechWorkstations  6 років тому +2

      I get the neck as straight as possible before levelling the top end of the fingerboard. Ultimately , the nut slots should be cut with .016” clearance above the crown of the first fret.

    Question: Would you say the nut slots between a Les Paul Standard and a Studio are exactly the same size in depth, width, and length? Are all of them slightly different? I have a friend who lives 1000 miles away with a Standard, and I have a Studio...if I set up the compensated nut for the Studio, is it possible to simply send the nut to him and have him ( or someone he trusts) install it?
    Thanks

    • @StringTechWorkstations
      @StringTechWorkstations  2 роки тому

      Anything is possible. You'd be best to make it slightly thick ... and let whoever is doing the install ... thin it down, for a press fit. For all of the final adjustments, adjusting the final string height at the nut, final touch up for precise values for each string etc. It will take someone who really knows and understands, precisely, step-by-step, all of the remaining work.

    • @StealthParrot
      @StealthParrot 7 років тому +1

      That was my guitar Mike and yes you swapped out the stock bridge for a roller bridge. The reason was because with the bigsby on a short body like the Les Paul, there is a very sharp angle of the strings coming up onto the bridge. That caused some of the strings to actually hit the frame of the bridge rather than the saddle (not enough clearance). It had tuning stability issues and scratchy frets. I was a little worried about using a roller bridge thinking it might lose some sustain. But it sounds great and it still plays like a dream since you set it up buddy! The compensated nut is soooo much nicer than stock too.

    The Gibson's guitars with a 24-3/4" scale length definitely need a compensating nut. It annoys me with every Gibson that I own how out of tune there are. At what scale length is a compensated nut not needed? How about the 25-1/2" scale length guitars?

    • @StringTechWorkstations
      @StringTechWorkstations  7 років тому +4

      All scale lengths need a bit of compensation because guitars a are "fixed pitch" instruments, with frets that stops the string at an exact length each time .... unlike the violin family that allows the player to adjust the pitch by moving the position of their fingers ( no -frets ).The 24 5/8" LP scale. is more sensitive to these tuning discrepancies that the longer Fender ( 25 1/2" ) scale. That is why you see countless musicians strumming G-C-D chords on a Tele or a Strat. .... and virtually NEVER on a LP. I will address this question further in the next video. Cheers Jody ! MMcC

    My problem is with tuning on the lower frets. A chord on second fret sounds out when the guitar is in tune. Worse the harder I play.

    • @StringTechWorkstations
      @StringTechWorkstations  4 роки тому

      Yes !! Precisely. The closer you get to the nut the more "back pressure" you will get from those strings ( and chords ) close to the nut. This is why that first position D chord is always out of tune ( especially the F# on the second fret ! ). Secondly : The left hand fretting pressure is the "Zen Factor " when it comes to tuning accuracy. I am always very careful not to " Death Grip " the notes when I am setting up a guitar. I go to great lengths to make sure that I am using a controlled confident fretting pressure when I do all of the intonation checks. Stay tuned ;^ ) .... a Taylor and a PRS are coming up next.

    All Les Pauls have the tuning / intonation problems built into every guitar. The headstock angle and tuning machine placement, in conjunction with inadequate nuts, are a recipe for trouble. (I suspect that ABR-1 + Stoptailpiece may also play a role with intonation problems in general.) In short, EVERY Gibson Les Paul will NOT hold pitch. No amount of fret dressing or other "work-arounds" will fix the basic STRUCTURAL issue. Therefore, I strongly recommend NOT purchasing a Gibson Les Paul, unless it's a valuable vintage guitar worth big $$$, and they seller only wants $300 bucks for it! Otherwise, save yourself a LOT of frustration and buy a guitar with IN-LINE tuners and also with little to no head-stock break angle. PRS figured it out and "fixed" the MAIN structural issue plagueing all 3+3 headstock guitars like Lesters.

Starting with a freshly stringed, trussed, dressed, intonated and tuned guitar isn't a problem. No. A Lester CAN BE tuned....but...will she REMAIN in tune is the question, right? You played very beautifully in the video you recommended. Very nice. Thank you. But you really didn't demand much from the instrument, as a structural being. I wrote that the guitars will NOT HOLD pitch, ya' know? Especially after some really, REALLY sick playing! Lots of bends and such devastation. Hehe. Physical playing, dig? After a mere 5-10 minutes of DEMANDING something from a Gibson, I doubt any of 'em will be in tune. Well, let's find out shall we? Put yours through the paces. Then, make a video documenting the effects. I await as always....patiently.

      No need to wait ...here are 6 more Gibsons ... perfectly tuned : I check them in Quartal as well as Tercian harmony.
      Imho ... I think "the hot setup" for super stable Gibson tuning entails : Ratio Tuners / Compensated Nut / Faber or Tone - Pro bridge and some uber tweaking. They'll behave themselves once that is all done. Cheers Joszef !
