My 3rd string always goes sharp after trem use

Re: My 3rd string always goes sharp after trem use

That's odd because I have a strat with a tree on the b and e and it returns to pitch better than another strat that has no string trees. Then again I have lubricated the tree on that guitar.

Forget what I said about the springs. Making the trem float or stick hard to the back didn't help one bit.

I just removed the string tree for the G and D strings. And guess what? The G string now returns to pitch. It's all in the string trees...

Staggered tuners for this one.

Fix your nut with some lubricant.

Also check your bridgework.

You got something stuck in there!~

I always pee crooked after sex, so I know how you feel.

Good thread here. I came here 'cause of same issue. I have a new Deluxe Roadhouse Strat. It's two-point and has two trees. The G is sharp after tremolo use. I have the D'Addario lube that comes with two applicator thingies. I guess I'll have to grease 'er up in the nut and tree that the G string goes through.

I think that'd be best left to a trained medical professional.
