For whatever reason, I can't keep the G string intonated. The other 5, no problem. I get the G set up right, play for a while, put it down, come back 1/2 later and it's off again.

I tune to the open and then tune on the 12th by adjusting the string length. Is this the right way? I've read about this method in several places but if there's a better way, I'm all ears.

Any thoughts?
