    Hi all ..i am using an Yamaha F210 Acoustic Guitar, bought on 2007 December...
    fom last few months 5th and 6th string always goes a note or a half down,mostly the 6th string is not in tune.......rest of the strings are in tune...
    i use D'addario guitar strings
    i dunno what the problem is...but i have tweaked my struss rod a long back...but that was long back...and i dunno id there's a problem with my adjusting nuts..cuz they feel still smooth....
    please any one show me a way out...cuz this is already frustating....

    Replace the tuning pegs.

    Or get a locking nut, if available for that make and model.

    if you have a decent guitar and are willing to go for high quality stuff than go for Grover tuners. The best in the business. You'd be surprised how much your sustain increases!!
    A locking nut is a good way but would reduce volume and decrease sustain!

    Go for the Grovers man!!
