67?

that's...fast?

For an old geezer, it is. Clocked with radar. Can you throw faster
without dislocating your shoulder? Never said I was a pro, just
stating a fact.
Ever been hit by a 67mph tomatoe?

No, I've enver been hit by a 67 mph tomatoe. as far as throwing faster
w/out dislocating my shoulddr, heck yes. I used to throw in the 90's
in a church league baseball team, till I crushed my wrist in an
unrelated accident 10 yrs ago. Haven't played since. I can still throw
a ball, but not w/ any accuracy.

You've never seen the size of our tomatoes. No comparison to a puny
baseball.

Probably not, Don. But then again, I've never seen much future or need
in lobbing beefsteak tomatos.

Hey, geetar players.. wish me luck. Today I am going to try to set up
the intonation on my schaller roller bridge. New strings the other
day, just read about how to do it on another group. Sounds easier than
I thought. Going to tune on the 5th and 17th frets to start. I will
let you know how it goes

If you wanna be anal about it, check out this bit of detail:

Fig. 8 Kinked strings are difficult to intonate, so you'll want to keep them
from kinking in front of the exact "takeoff" point needed for good
intonation. Before installing new strings, move the bridge saddles farther
back than where they'll be after the intonation is set. Once the action is
comfortable, adjust the saddles forward (toward the neck). This Musicmaster
has a short scale length of 30". (The scale length is twice the distance
from the nut's front edge to the 12th fret, in this case 15".) To correctly
intonate an electric bass, you'll need to compensate the scale-length
measurement by as much as q", as this allows for the distance a string is
depressed when you fret a note. Adjust the bridge saddles so that all of
their peaks are just a bit farther back than the adjusted measurement
(slightly more than 30q" in this case). To move a spring-loaded saddle, don't
simply tighten the length-adjusting screw-push the saddle backward to
relieve the pressure, and then tighten the screw. The bridge saddles will be
slightly farther back than you want (and the intonation on fretted notes
will be flat), but you'll be moving them forward when you perform the final
intonation. That will leave any possible string kinks behind, not in front
of, the saddle peaks.

Thanks for that, however it leaves me confused. My Schaller is indeed
a spring loaded bridge. So when you have done this to your equipment,
did you loosen the string before you moved the roller back or just
stretch it by adding more (length) tension to the adjustment?
