but I successfully intonated both my tele with the three barrel bridge and my Les Paul this morning.

Actually, its no big deal for most of you, but I feel like I just conquered Mt Everest or something. :embarrassed:

Hmm, I noticed no pic of the 3 barrel intonation.....:annoyed: Are we to take your word? Everyone knows intonating those is unpossible:bigg:

I've grown to love the just out of intonation weirdness playing the two that I have. It's a vibe I like mostly playing Stones like riffs.

Congrats!

I get it. I can do all kinds of repairs. But I can't intonate and tweek a truss rod properly. There's a shop that I do a lot of work with that does minor setups for me for free. I just bring him a bottle of good whiskey every few months. I'm in there once a week or so for something.
 
That's some good intonating right there!

One time we went to an actual recording studio and the engineer/producer refused to let our guitarist play a three-saddle telecaster just on principle. (He had other uh quirky opinions too, though, I mean really.)
 
For real. For me to have bench space for a guitar, the shortest course of order would be building a new bench, if not an entirely new shop.

The struggle is real

Every one of my projects starts with a clean up or reorganization effort just to have a space to work in
