Hey,
I just got a new les paul traditional 2018 and intonation is sharp on the D string, like 5-7 cents. The bridge saddle is screwed all the way back.
Should i just flip the saddle to get more length to the string?
Is it a bad idea to buy a aftermarket bridge like tonepros to get more room for intonation? A few other saddles are also very close to the back of the bridge.
Or could it be a nut issue? I've measured nut action height and it seems fine. Neck relief is also measured and it seems fine,pretty straight with a very small gap at the 7th fret.
I used the setup guide found here: http://forum.gibson.com/index.php?/topic/88951-setup-guide-in-metric/
Thanks! Im Finnish btw so sorry for any misspellings
