White Korina jazzmaster

Sounds better backwards !?!

Crazy I know, but yes, I don't have it dialed in yet, but it became more playable string height. Thats why I posted it was to verify the proper orientation.

I am pretty sure the intonation screws should face rearward, but not sure if it matters, I have never had a Jazzmaster.

Agree

I looked at photos of jazzmaster and they all seem to have the screws facing the bridge, but actually it seems to sound and play better with screws facing neck, I don't know if it matters or not, my first jazzmaster.

The screws should face the rear of the guitar towards the trem unit. Better to turn it around and set it up.

It looks like you are using the Modified Mustang bridge that Warmoth sells rather than the Jazzmaster/Jaguar that they also sell.

Change brand of strings, too
