I always check the intonation when I put new strings on the guitar. Hardly ever have to adjust them, and when I do, it's usually only a tad.

Hopefully the new strings fix it though but if not their bridges are only like $12 and they have the large bushing ones to fit Asain made guitars like Epiphones.

PS Not pushing the thing at you, just providing answers to anticipated questions. Also if you did do it realize that it is not necessary to replace the ridged part that fits down inside ther guitar (Top right in pic). The threaded posts fit right into the existing ones in the guitar and the bridge drops right on. It is a simple job. I did the swap on my LP, and it was real easy! I did it manly to get rid of a bad buzzing in the old one, but the extra adjustablity was real nice also!!!
Thanks all for responding! Y he link to the bridge is great, mine also rattles! Also I did not realize that guitar strings would lose intonation after time!!! Bridge on order !!!]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance Basementplayer https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375925 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375908 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 18:12:26 +0000

If this is the first time its been done on this guitar, there is always the chance it is slighty out of specs. If thats the case, it LOOKS like a normaly EPI LP bridge on this. if so the nashville style bridges have a bit more adjustment room. Might help you if this is the case. But if its been done before... and cant now, I would be looking for what changed on the guitar sence last time.]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance s1120 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375874 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375872 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 14:24:40 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance Basementplayer https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375872 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375870 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 09:49:11 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance Alan Green https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-375870 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-42905 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 04:04:53 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance Basementplayer https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/epi-alleykat-wont-intonate/#post-42905
