Hi, thanks for taking the time to read this.

I have an Epiphone Special II electric guitar and have a problem with it staying in tune. I think i know what the problem is, but just need someone to confirm my suspicions before i go and spend some money.

Strings are well streched, and wound correctly (I have two acoustics which stay in tune perfectly) I am using the same brand of strings as for the other guitars.

The G and B strings are the main culprits, and i am thinking it may be the tuners slipping (I know they are quite cheap)

If someone can confirm this is the problem, are there any reccomendations for replacement tuners? or should i be looking elsewhere?

Many thanks

Mike
