Hi, anybody know the correct way to adjust the intonation, I have a KBI and the note at the twelfth fret is #, I can see the bridge has two grub screws which are obviously for just this just. Any advice?

Here's a post on BC by our own FatRich that seems to explain it.

Many Thanks BassBus

Here is a copy of the relevant part from the link.

In your comments on the hipshot website you ask about adjusting the intonation, if they're the same as the ABMs there are a total of 4 grub screws per saddle assembly:

2 on top either side of the string to adjust the string height blocks
1 in the saddle facing the pickups to unlock the string the string height blocks
1 in the saddle facing sideways just behind the string height blocks that unlocks the saddle / string height block assembly to adjust intonation

The last one isn't obvious on the black coloured bridges, it took me a while to find it!


A bit fiddly to achieve, but easy enough.
