mightyhorn Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I just got my SPIRIT bass today. I bought it on eBay.... (factory second) I got no tools with it and an instruction book for the "synapse" model... I need instructions on "SETTING UP" the guitar. Well I found an allen wrench and have adjusted the heights of my strings... How do I get my 12th fret (octave) in tune with my open string? The other strings are close except for the G string - the octave is WAY HIGH. Is my string too high? Not a real guitar mechanic, so make it plain and simple please... THANKS!!!!!

headlost Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Hi! What Spirit bass (bridge) did you get? I've the instructions for the 4-string DB-tuner bridge, but these focus mainly on the dual DB tuner setup. I can send the ¨.doc file to you if you'll provide your e-mail adress. Regarding the G string intonation in your bass, you must try several positions until finding a compromise between the 24th and the 12th fret harmonics. The lower the action is, the easier the correct intonation will become. Cheers, JPB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
