Any ideas why my little fecker is failing to hold its tuning for very long.

I changed the strings and since then it's falling out of tune on the thinnest strings.


Would you reckon the bridge needs to be adjusted

Intonation on a guitar is thrown out if you change string size up or down, I believe. Maybe it's that. Or the machine heads.

It's a mando and the bridge is not fixed.


I ll fiddle around with it again until gowerjack bothers his arse to reply.

I'm ignored on this site now as I was shamed at my elimination for POTY which some London bird won.

Peel it first and then serve it with some single cream Perch, and maybe a meringue nest.

Also coming from a guitar background-- I'd check my tune Keys, are well secured, and the bridge is inplace. Honestly I've never had much of problem with tuning when changing string weights, I do this all the time on my 12 string accoustic and never had much of an issue... now my strat's bridge tends to pop out more often than I'd like.

My other thought would be (and this probably more from computer guy mind) that I'd buy up another set of strings if I could and throw them on, and see if you just got bad luck and the first new set were just crap. Then you can promptly send the first set back to the manufacturer for a refund.

I got a Guild 12 and keeping it in tune after new strings is no problem.


I went wrong by completely removing the bridge on the Mando.

It's fine margins
