we don't need rest!!
is there a secret I am not getting? I have owned and still own some decent guitars, from a Guild Starfire, to a Ric, to a Les Paul, 80's Amer. strat, Gibson L6S...on and on. But I could never keep these pups in tune, especially the G string, but mainly them all. I know I wind the strings on proper, have good tuning keys, Grovers, Schallers, even guitars without whammy bars. I have used Fender Super Bullets, whatever else...and go with medium gauges. The light strings get even worse. I do like to play aggressive and bend strings quite a bit, but when I go for some 1st position chords like your open C, D, G, they all sound pretty bad after a little playing. I can get them in tune originally, but they won't stay there...so I don't think the guitars are setup bad. Take them to a setup expert, play them in front of them?...is that my choice?...
