Once the neck has the desired relief, you can use the screws for each saddle to adjust
the string position to suit your taste. Here, too, the lower the strings, the easier they
are to fret, but they will buzz more easily when the guitar is played.
After adjusting string position, you can check the octaves of the guitar and readjust if
necessary. Tune all the strings to the correct pitch, gently touch the rst string right
above the twelfth fret and then pick the string. The resulting overtone (harmonic in
the 12th fret) must have the same pitch as the string in the 12th fret. If the pitch of
the two notes is dierent, move the bridge piece forward for this string (tone too
low) or back (tone too high). Listen to the pitch of the two notes and make incre‐
mental changes until the two notes match. Alternatively, you can also adjust the
octave clarity with an instrument tuner. In this case, the pitch of the tone at the 12th
fret must be the same as the unfretted string, but one octave higher.
