594 G won't stay in tune

[Walter White]

Hi, you know my name, lol but I'm new to PRS and the forum. Love the guitar but it goes out of tune after only a few bends G string only. Any ideas before I phone the shop?

Bad string or the nut is binding ? Perhaps the tuner locking mechanism isn't tight or functioning properly, allowing the string to slip.
That's all I got.

I tightened the grub screws all seems ok tuner end, I'll have to change strings, at least then I can count that out of the equation. Cheers

Did you try lubricating the nut slot with some graphite? That should help.

Changed the strings and lubed the nut and saddles last night, I'll check now.

Try capo'ing and then using the trem. If it still goes out of tune, it's not the nut, but the saddle..

No trem on the 594
