As Muris said, this usually happens when you ahve old strings. So first of all put new strings on, and after you put them on you'll have to see if the intonation is right. Once you set the intonation to have all guitar in tune across the whole fretboard you will never have to re-set it again. It would be great if you could ask someone you know to show you how to setup your guitar.

Terry - did you buy private or off a retail shop?
If it's a shop then they should have set it up for you and in that case if I was you I'd go back and ask them to do it now properly. Private sale - afraid you may have to pay for a set up. As Andrew says bridge look strange re: intonation. Very old strings will cause lots of problems and may be near impossible to get in tune all the way properly 'down the neck' as Muris says. But regardless that bridge - the placement of the individual saddles looks odd - it's not the same as a compensated bridge, just compare it with a standard Gibson stop bar or a compensated acoustic and it looks wrong. Guitar shop *should* sort it for you , hopefully free if you got it from them. Cheers, Tony -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
