Whenever I get a new guitar, I usually bring it to my luthier who will
do a pre-sales check and let me know what all the issues are and what
would be required to fix them. He then makes a recommendation as to
whether he thinks it's worthwhile to keep or not. Cost is usually
around $50 for this. He goes over it in extreme detail. Sometimes,
issues are caused by odd things that I wouldn't pick up on. For
example, your intonation issue could have to do with the way the nut is
cut, and nothing to do with the bridge. Seen this before on a Heritage
575 a friend of mine had. The nut had to be moved back a hair to fix
the problem. Anyways, his assessment is always a lot more accurate and
thorough than my own and often times what seems like a major problem to
me is in reality a minor issue that can be easily corrected.
