    Has it ever been proven drilling a few holes in them has negative effects?! Seems that technique has been used in some form or other since people have been making solid body guitars with electric pickups - there are lots of dogs running from the heyday era of vintage guitars, look around and you'll see them out there!

    • @SGspecial84
      @SGspecial84 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You must have played/owned wrap around bridge guitars with shitty setups. No stringed instrument is in perfect intonation anyway, and you need to use finger pressure while fretting to adjust to these minor inflections in intonation. A 54' les paul is guitar you learn to play and bond with.

    • @PaulMcCaffreyfmac
      @PaulMcCaffreyfmac 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There are grub screws to move the whole bridge/tailpiece back and forth. You can get the intonation as good as any regular acoustic. I used to own a '57 Junior with the same arrangement and with 10-46 strings I had no intonation problems playing high on the neck
