You gotta fret the 12th fret to intonate accurately. Now with my previous technique I’ve been doing pretty good but not perfect as I’ve just discovered a room full of slightly out basses. So if I’ve set up one of your instruments prior to 4/20/23. My sincere apologies lol.

Wrong! :D with a combination of partially accurate and wrong techniques and a little witchcraft. I still use the witchcraft though.
