    Hi to all. Havnt been on for yonks, no work on my tele yet, will get round to it now winters coming.
    A HUGE QUESTION. Im doing a bit of maintainance on my JM 1 and having a problem. The intonation is a little off at the low e string, i think its because i should of set the bridge on a slight angle. Bit late now!
    So i could remove the neck, fill the screw holes and replace with it just away from the body, the scratch plate would cover it, but i was wondering if the other option could be if i replace the bridge with one with more adjustments? And have you seem one i could use. Any thoughts out there guys?
    Ta in advance.

    Doh!! I did exactly the same with my JM-1.
    Fortunately for me it became evident whilst still in pre-finish state.
    I had to re-dowel and then re-drill.

    I'd be interested to see if there is a suitable replacement for these bridges.

    cheers, Mark.

    Me too, a wider bridge or one with adjustments backwards or forwards.
