The intonation of the guitar must be set by moving the bridge/saddles forward or backward in accordance with the harmonics/root note. For instance after you have tuned your guitar to standard tuning using a chromatic tuner, fret your guitar on the 12 fret and then pick the note then pick the 12 fret natural harmonic, you can tell with a digital tuner if the note is sharp or flat. When picking between the string and harmonic when the intonation is set correctly the natural harmonic will be on key as well as the fretted note. For beginners it will be fairly easy to do with a stop-bar type tuneomatic bridge. Adjust the saddle screws forward if flat and back if sharp, minute adjustments will do. Floyd Rose style bridges will become more complex if you do not know how to setup and intonate them.

How do you intonate an electric guitar?
Electric guitars are played in the same manner as acoustic guitars. The guitar works because magets underneath the strings, in between the end of the neck and the bridge, detect the vibration of the strings as they're played. These magnets (called pick-ups) move in sympathy with the strings, which allows the signal to be converted from a kinetic signal into an electric one. This signal passes through controls inside the guitar (which are controlled via 'pots' on the guitar body) which control the tone and volume of the signal, as it leaves the guitar via the jack.
