REPLACING THE STRINGS
To replace strings, thread the new strings through the string holes located on
the back of the guitar. The strings are then threaded through the tremolo block
and up and over the saddle.
FAT/SAT (expect FAT6) ADJUSTING THE TREMOLO SPRING
A standard tremolo can be adjusted so that the pitch can be raised when the
tremolo arm is pulled up to loosen the tremolo springs located under the
tremolo cavity on the back of the guitar. One disadvantage of this procedure is
that it can cause the pitch to go sharp if string breaks. To remedy this, adjust
the tremolo plate so it sits flush on the body by tightening the tremolo springs.
Choose the number and placement of the tremolo springs according to the
string gauge and the tremolo adjustment .

INTONATION ADJUSTMENT (FAT20)
To assure that no movement can occur each saddle has a set screw that locks
the saddle. When adjusting the intonation, loosen the saddle lock screw using
a 2mm Allen wrench. (D)
To adjust the intonation, insert a 2.5mm Allen wrench into the saddle screw at
the rear of the tremolo. Turning the wrench clockwise will adjust the saddle
backward. Counter clockwise will adjust the saddle forward. After the correct
intonation location of the saddle is set tighten the saddle lock down screw to
assure no movement will occur. (E)
INTONATION ADJUSTMENT (FAT10/SAT10)
The intonation can be adjusted by adjusting
the saddle forward or backward using a
Phillips (+) head screwdriver on the
intonation adjustment screw at the rear of
the bridge.
ADJUSTING THE INTONATION & THE STRING HEIGHT (FAT 6)
The intonation can be adjusted by adjusting the saddle forward or backward
using a philips(+) head adjustment screw at the rear of the bridge. String height
is controlled by raising or lowering the small allen screws using a wrench on
either side of the saddle.
