Is this the guitar Ra1der2 sent back? How did you check the intonation - by ear or with a tuner? I'm curious, because I know Ra1der2 knows his stuff, and you look like you've got enough experience under your belt to know about setting intonation as well. As someone who had a first run with the bridge mounted in the wrong spot (as evidenced by the route showing on the front of the bridge) I'm really wanting to know if they've corrected this systematic error completely or not.

So let me get this straight...you had to adjust the B and low E but didn't have to adjust the low B or F#, which are the two string I know were way out and yet you are stating the LB and F# were already intonated properly when you received it?

I don't know if its intentional or unintentional on your part, but I'm calling BS here unless something was done to the guitar after I returned it.

How much of the bridge routing is showing from under the front of the bridge?

I know the route was showing when I received it, so I'd love to see a pic of the front as others have requested as well.

Correct B and low E needed to be adjusted after I tuned the guitar, came in perfect. Maybe some adjustments were made when it was sent back?? I actually had a harder time getting my 8 string intrepid adjusted when I had one.
sorry you had bad luck with the guitar but no BS here, I would like to thank you for returning the guitar. This was a good B stock buy for sure.
the routing is showing a little on the front. see pic. how much was showing when you got it?
