Removing the string tension off the saddles is the key!

Dude did not talk about the up and down🤷‍♂️

I think I need a longer screw on my G string. It's just hanging on to the saddle, when intonated.

Just masking tape your pickups. Apply 0000 steel wool to frets AND fingerboard, use a magnet/paper towel to remove the residue. Apply oil of your choice (I have come back around to linseed oil after about 40 years). Those scratches are NOTHING!! They are so fine, it's ridiculous and your "heal" it back with the oil. THAT from a player of 62+ years.

Great explanation, but how would I know if it is in tune when I only use Guitar Tuna as a tuner.?

Worn out nut! That creates the buzz.

You just explained everything in 2 sentences. Few 30mins videos couldn't teach me that.

Excellent video mate. Really great tutorial!

Thank you so much. You have no idea how scared I was trying to learn by myself and you made it so simple for us. Also it was really hard to find out exactly what I was looking for but once you started explaining everything made sense

This!!! Is the best tutorial.. thank you!🎉

The cure all explanation

That's a ridiculous price for that little piece--thanks for your review. What string gauge are you using?

Excellent demonstration, very clear and insightful. Thanks.

and just got a bass with muffed/dead spots on G string frets 3-5....what would be your adjustment for that?

Awesome explanation!

Hi!! Did you change to a thinner string gauge? Many times the fault is fixed by changing the gauge of the strings that Fender uses by default (045-.105) the string is vibrating inside the nut because of a thinner gauge.

Thanks for showing us! 🍻

Yes. That’s the way to explain it. Thank you for posting.

Can you still intonate your bass if you don't have that fancy tuning device?

Im pretty sure the buzz is about strings height

It sounds like that buzz is coming from your bridge.

Whoever thought steel wool is the go to thing got rocks in their head just get a Scotch-Brite pad if you need to get some serious grime out and other than that just constantly rubbing with a cloth with the right oils and cleaners will make everything okay. As for the fret polish stick to the frine Music nomad stuff that works.

Thanks! ✌️🙂🎻😎

Thank you for posting this video. Very helpful! Was able to dial in my Foundation perfectly.

super helpful, thank you so much for your clear explanation

IMO steel wool has no place on the guitar. I'd suggest a different approach: 1) Use micromesh pads instead of steel wool (they are washable and re-usable) 2) Use fret guards - by the handles - to polish the frets with micro mesh 3) Use fret guards and cloth, or dremel wheel, to buff the frets with the paste

Absolute legend, great video thanks!

I’m kind of confused as to why you loosened the already flat string and tightened the sharp string. Isn’t that counter productive. Does anyone know?

Bro thanks a loooot. You did the video sooo clear

1:33

Nice, just need a video on truss rods and how high my strings should be and I'll be set. 😎

I had a jazz deluxe w this buzz. Sold it. Won't buy any bass with that A string buzz ever again.

Clear, concise, no B.S., straight to the point, A++++

Crystal clear explanation and demonstration, thanks man!

So once again we see him making a lot of hand gestures and an overdubbed vocal track. Skip it.

The Sandberg string retainer is a much better solution to the problem, and are available for 4 or 5-string basses.

I setted up everything (accept i don't touched the nut) but the low E is flat, although the saddle is close to it's limit for shortening, but the low A is an nightmare... What do i do wrong? Action is perfect, neck has the right bow. Please help 😭

Thank you, really easy to understand video

I've been spending money on getting someone to do this for me for years and you've just explained it perfectly in four minutes. Thank you!

Easy way to remember this is forgot all the shortening amd lengthening shit if you're looking at the tuner and the note is right you tight if the note is left you loosen

But now I need to know if strings should be same height across those thingys or not lol I know string sizes are different but should they be leveled out & flush with each other

Great explanation !

correct! too many guys just do a harmonic at the 12th and call it intonation and that is not correct, ask me how I know

Does this work on Kala u-bass because I have moved back the saddle adjuster about 1/4" without any difference its still sharp on 12th fret

Good job. Thank you, bro.

So my intonation is is off right at the second fret. I hope the adjustment of intonation will fix IT. I noticed needle flips around a lot making it difficult to read the note

Great video man! I loved how simple and straightforward you made it. Anyway you can make a video about getting rid of fret buzz? I got a new bass for christmas and cant seem to get it from buzzing so much

Wow, got 3/4 strings perfect, between open and 12th fret, but the 24th is still a bit sharp on all of them, I figured who cared, I never play up there anyway. But my E string I don't have enough adjustment on my bridge

Clearly explained! Thanks for that it always seemed so complicated

Any video of trusrod adjustments?
