Seagull s6 advice

theunforgiven246 · 04-20-2006, 02:17 AM

ok so i am planning on getting a seagull s6 at this store near me and it sounds awsome and its for $349 but i'm gonna try to get a hardshell case with it and i'll only go up to 400 with the case. my only concern is that the intonation is a little off but still noticable. i was wondering if they should/would fix that for free before i buy it, and if thats a reasonable price for one with a case.

wow i'm a dumbass.... i just realized i misspelled seagull in the thread tittle... but its 1 am and i'm tired as fuck dso forgive my dumbass.

I have a 12-string with the same problem. Order the compensated saddle from Seagull and it fixes it right up.

Not only did I correct the spelling of Seagull for you, I also changed advise (v) to advice (n). I rule.

So, it's like the guitar you liked before, but infinitely better? Sounds like it's worth the extra $100 personally.

I have a normal S6 and have no problems whatsoever with the intonation. The best acoustic I've ever owned.

yea so i'm thinking about going down on friday and putting a down payment on taht bitch.

Drew · 04-25-2006, 04:07 PM

$450 for a guitar that you feel is quite a bit better than a similar $350 one? Sounds like you can't go wrong here - I think you should go down and buy it friday, too.

Oh, and then throw some Elixers on it - I love their new phosphor bronze strings.

Oh, and then take pictures.
