I'm out of tune

[beaubrummels]

You are getting all this free tech advice yet you don't seem thankful. This is my last freebie.

I can't even comment further because they never said what guitar make and model and what bridge is on it, though if the G needs to be that far back I believe something else is contributing. Goober knows what he's talking about.

I got it much closer by shortening the spring. I will have the nut checked. Strings are S.I.T pure nickel. I've noticed they do in fact stay in tune better than either GHS or Ernie Ball. Frets were done at Sweetwater by a PLEK machine. $299.00.

Guitar is a Player Strat. Two-point bridge.

Goober is no Goober when it comes to Guitaring

Also, when ICTGoober posts something, I read it in my head like a superheavy Jayhawker accent -like Danny Cary for example.

I have no idea who Danny Cary is.
Decades ago I had a girlfriend who told me I sounded like a redneck geechee from Georgia.
I found that hilarious, saying I sounded southern - but it was southern Kansas.

It's the nut. NOT the bridge.

care to expand on that? as long as the nuts in the right place and cut cleanly and properly, and understanding the guitar is a flawed instrument, not sure how the nut would mess with the intonation that much. ive built guitars from blocks of wood, but im no luthier

sounds like high action to me

just saying

you are plucking the harmonic directly over the 12th fret ? right

if you are just a bit back it will do that as well

It's probably NOT cut properly (as to correct height). In my experience, it's almost ALWAYS the nut. But it could be the bridge. The nut is just the first place to look.

Just get rid of the spring lol. I hate those things and always get rid of all of them because they always buzz.

Nice video, you voice is a more reserved and little smoother than the brash Jayhawker accent I was reading your post as -also - I imagined you with a boonie hat on -I have no idea why.

Danny Cary is drummer for tool and talks with a heavy Jayhawker accent,
