I've kind of given up, tbh. After the neck adjustment, it seemed to do the trick, but I've been doing GT's solo boot camp for the past month, which involves a lot of full bends, and I was just permanently retuning the G and B strings. In the end, I just used my old Squier Strat.
In the end, I'm not sure if it's Epi's QC or if it's just the wrong type of guitar for me, but I really don't feel very 'bonded' with it. It's funny, because it looks beautiful and sounds great, when in tune at least, but I don't find myself reaching to it the way I do for my Strat. I'm seriously considering trading it in for a string-through Tele, which is what I'd had in my head prior to watching Get Back, bloody Lennon with his cool stripped down Casino. I wonder if he was permanently retuning it too...
