So here is the test:
Using a meter, and with fresh strings, set your intonation (12 fret harmonic matching the 12 fret fretted note). Once your intonation is set, with a meter, check the E on the B string, A on the E string, D on the A string, etc…. across the neck.
Are these notes exactly in tune or flat / sharp?

Pressed noted are already sharpened.. Harmonics will be in tune only with harmonics..
