Set up instructions

Post by ganeshkrish0212 »

I have an asat tribute alnico classic, which I picked up here in the USA . Will be travelling back to India in a couple of days.. It comes with a beautiful 6 saddle brass bridge, got it set up at the dealer I picked it up from. I would eventually have to dismantle the neck form the body for me to take the Instrument home in my check in suitcase.. If I was to take it as a whole, I would end up paying 35-40% as tax..
I need the set up instructions for those saddles ... The action and intonation setup .. So that I could do my own work, incase it requires any adjustments.. There is a g&l dealer there in the place I stay in, but prefer to learn to work on my own.. Any setup pdf's or manual you people could share would be greatly appreciated...

Regards
Ganesh Krish

One note about the G&L Owner's Manual, Version 2 (1988-2008):

The truss rod and action adjustment on Pages 7 and 9 have been updated in this version. The information contained herein is applicable to just about all G&Ls (before 2008 or so).
Note for SC-2 (2008 and up), continue to use the setup in this manual.

Specifications do change from time to time, so check the G&L Knowledgebase, G&L Technical Questions & Tips sub-forum for updates as they become available to us.
Look for "Current factory setup ... " posts in the G&L Technical Questions & Tips sub-forum.

Hope this helps.

Sorry, that last post confused me. Please see below


One note about the G&L Owner's Manual, Version 2 (1988-2008): ?? Is that what the link above was to? I didn't see a version number?

The truss rod and action adjustment on Pages 7 and 9 have been updated in this version (which version?) . The information contained herein (where is herein?) is applicable to just about all G&Ls (before 2008 or so).
Note for SC-2 (2008 and up), continue to use the setup in this (which is this? )manual.

Seems like you are referencing 2 versions, but I have no idea which one was posted, and where the other one is??

thanks

Yes, it is to the second version of the manual (1988-2008).
Here is the link to our copy of the first version in our Gallery: http://www.guitarsbyleo.com/GALLERY2/ma ... itemId=378 .

Hope this helps.
