When I played a perfect fifth up the neck it sounded out of tune. I then checked the intonation on both the G and the D strings. According to the tuner, the fretted G string at the 12th fret is quite a bit sharp when compared to the 12th fret harmonic.
Problem is I can't turn the intonation screw on the G string any further back. The G string saddle needs to go further back in order for me to get that string better intonated.
What is the solution?
Put in a shorter spring?
Should I just take the current spring and a pair of wire cutters and cut some of the spring off to make it shorter?
