Glad I checked as turned out I'd located the bridge almost half an inch higher than it should have been. The scale ruler that I got from Stewmac doesn't go full distance from nut to bridge so I marked a 12th fret position off the soundboard and then swung the ruler around to get the saddle position. In the end I used the saddlematic thingy and learnt a little about string length compensation at the same time.
