I went with a friend to look at acoustic guitars the other day. I will not go into naming and shaming because it is frankly unhelpful, but he was looking at £3K guitars and the intonation on the bottom E string on one of them was out. Not in a whole quarter tone style, but in a way that frankly I would expect a £3K instrument to not be. How hard is it to intonate an acoustic?
We did not discuss it with the shop because he did not want to take it any further.
