I just started experiencing this same outa-tune problem and, yes, I just started opening the windows at night bringing in really chilly air to combat the next day's summer temps.

Only the semi-hollow electric has the problem, the acoustic not at all. But there's a significant difference in the proximity to the window between the two.

I'm gonna move the electric to beside the acoustic and see what happens...
