Sorry if this is in the wrong section - I was not sure where to file it.
Ok first up - my G string is constantly going out of tune. It is not getting played/bent around more than the others, but is going wildly out of tune quite often. Could it be the fact that the strings are 3 weeks old? (In singapore that = rust, dead, strings). Anything else I can check? It has been fine most of the time - has not always been so.
Secondly, when I hit the notes at the 12th fret, they are slightly off the note they are supposed to be. A fairly small amount and it does not sound like a totally different note, definitely not a whole not flap/sharp. However, do I have an intonation problem?
I've gotta take this guy to Japan for my audition on Friday so I don't have the time to take it to someone, so I hope there is a quick fix to all of this : /
Many thanks in advance.
