I have two nice electrics, a Suhr and a 335. I've not had the latter very long but I've noticed that it doesn't have the tuning stability of the Suhr - or even my cheapo Hofner shorty when we have hot weather.
Given the Gibson has locking tuners and the Hofner's are about as cheap as they come, I can't see why the Shorty seems to hold it's tuning quite well whereas the Gibson tends to have gone sharp when I pick it up the next evening. The Suhr incidentally is amazingly stable and maybe it spoiled me.
I can think of two possibilities, either the Gibson needs a good setup or maple necks are naturally more stable than mahogany.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
