That is kinda strange, that's what usually happens with kahler tremolo systems...

try rubbing some pencil in the nut and bridge slots

I don't get why it worked fine when I changed the strings. I am assuming that there is no way that the string is slipping in the locking tuners. I made sure that they were on pretty tight.

I tried that

so this is a string thru tail?
Like was stated Kahler is horrid with this, But just do a dive and your right back in tune...
Floyds are perfect with this .. The issue is non-existent.

1-make sure the strings are pre stretched... If your in a colder climate ( like me) hell, lately i try to keep my guitars as warm as possible and wrap a polish cloth around the tuning pegs to give them a little more protection from the temperature. If you have cold tuners.. Yah... your in a bad place if your playing a gig, so in the winter I will never let my guitars sit out in the open when there not in use.

Let us know how it goes...

Yeah, it's a string through body guitar. I bought it because I hate floating tremelos, last year.

I have a Jackson RR1 and I couldn't stand adjusting the spring tension, so I blocked it completely. I prefer fixed bridges for that reason.

None of my other guitars are having the issue and the room is pretty warm. I also had the same problem during the summer as well. (I just ignored it and played other guitars), So, I'm assuming that temp isn't what is causing it.

well hell I have no idea, was this a brand new guitar?
if you want to go extreme consider replacing the nut, bridge unless you have a good enough Shop locally that is willing to find the source of the problem

Yep, the guitar was brand new...

I read about how they go about replacing and removing the nut and it seems to be one of the simpler operations one could do. I'm hoping I could just take it to guitar center or sam ash. I'm assuming they can handle such a task lol. I guess I could really just do it myself. All you need is a hammer and some glue. :D

that's strange...

have you done a right stretch before to lock everything?

Do you mean before I put the string on the locking tuners? I pulled the strings and locked them in, then cut off the slack. Then I pull them up by the pickups to break em in.

and yes, I play in standard tuning.

no i don't. i'm talking about the string stretch procedure when you put a new set of strings.
google/youtube it - maybe it is just that

I strangle 3 goats with the strings before putting them on the guitar to make sure they are properly broken in. I don't know what other procedures exist :p

Anyway, I brought it to sam ash and the tech told me that the neck was bowed a bit from the temp and humidity changes and the nut needs to get fixed up. So, it will cost 60 plus bucks. At least, it will be fixed.
