    If you have a look at this picture of a Ric 12-string bridge, you can see that the notches aren't central but offset in pairs, to get the correct string spacing but still have individual string intonation available. You may be able to re-notch your saddles. or you might need some new ones.

    hi Simon, in this pic the strings in sequence appear to go thick thin - thick thin etc, wheras pabs pic above is opposite?
    is there a standard or does it not matter and just an option? maybe a lefty? never seen a 12 in rl myself, interesting thread.

    guitar looks very nice btw Bill
