more toys than talent
I am a CU24, guy and here is what I do to make tuning better, not perfect. Its not a Floyd so there are trade offs. I have four core PRS 3 cu24's and 1 SCT all with trems.
My method is -
- good strings
- everything is clean
- Big Bends nut sauce in the grooves of the nut
- good set up
- before you play stretch each string numerous times with big two hand bends at the 12th
- tune up to pitch only
- play and retune play and retune
Yes it will still require retuning with big bar movements, but with normal playing and accent bar work it holds very well.
