  • Hey man! I'm having trouble on my Copy Les Paul. Gibson said that an angled headstock improves sustain. I've done something on the past. I just raised the action and I loved the sustain. But because of too much string angle. It doesn't stay in tune. It gets back after when I do the neck bending technique or it gets complicated if I tune it on the headstock. Any ideas how to fix this?

  • @z3r0sh1ft Just follow my video on How to tune a guitar with a fixed bridge.

  • would if the first fret sounds like a sitar and then do i have to stretch it just asking.

    and then tune it if it is tuned

    my guitar is not tuned at all.

  • Excellent. Thank you.

  • ...bridge and headstock they go sharp and no matter how many times I pull the strings they keep going sharp. Even after I tune them back and finish them all, I check again for tuning and they've gone sharp again! Help please!

  • thank you good ideas, i'm playing gtr for 15 years never thinking about these logical steps. ciao !

  • @augie150 I think you mean fret buzz.

  • @fruduadirectdeal Yes If I understand what you mean.

  • @fruduadirectdeal You would think so, since the rest of the strings seem to. I find the flatting of the B strings somewhat "necessary" for the A and F#7 forms, especially as you move up the neck. The offset is slight, but the impact seems dramatic. I was thinking there might be a way to account for it via intonation. Anyway, I look forward to your intonation video. Any other thoughts would be much appreciated. Either way,Thanks for the reply.

  • @pupwinder It should fix itself to a given tuning while strecthed... no?

  • @TechnicalFreak The one I used for this video I do not remember what it was it was from a friend of mine. Sorry. I'll get informed.
