What's this?

Yep, Epi level LP, or Squire level Strat, make dang sure it's set up...


properly with proper intonation, there is nothing more frustrating for beginners, who have a guitar but it's not set up properly, low string action so they don't have sore fingers constantly, and bad intonation, so that they think it's in tune, but it sounds like crap.

Don't do that to a beginner. They will think it's them. Make sure it is set up properly.
