Guitar Tuning Pegs

[Greg_L]

Hehe, how profound!

And better than any help you offered!

Now back to the cave, troll.

Offered help?

This same problem has been hashed/and answered, in here for years.

Even Google, will tell you any guitar answers.

A real simple instrument. Nothing magical about a guitar.

Maybe you get a nut off on silly answers, but I've heard that same problem since 1947.

And, that was way before Google.

Slowthinker cares so little he's made a point of telling us how much he doesn't care. You should tell us more often that we already know this shit then we can turn the lights off and go home..

The best thing to avoid guitar strings going out of tune is:

(a) Buy a quality instrument .
(b) When you put the strings in, give them plenty of "neatly organised" winds on the pegs.
(c) When you put new strings on, give them some big bends to begin with, especially the treble strings.
(c) Watch out for your floating tremolo. They can move around and cause your strings to go flat.
(d) Play the instrument in and then always tune "up" to the note from at least a tone or semi-tone below.

The fact is, even with a nice USA strat, if you tweak the tremolo a lot and bend a lot with new strings, the strings will go flat or out of tune. If you bend large on a strat, you can see the tremolo moving underneath my right hand. So some people put the bridge flat on the body. That also has the effect of improving the tone slightly because the bridge is now connected to the wood.

If you dont like floating tremolo's, you could try a Telecaster or Les Paul/SG style bridge.

Unfortunately, checking how long it takes for these nuiances to occur is difficult to determine in the shop, but's it all part of playing guitar.

Once you play regularly, you will get a feel for how to manage each style of guitar.
