Hi, I have a Yamaha 12-string acoustic that I've had fer, oh, 'bout 10-15 yrs now...I can tune it easily by ear but the thing is that it seems not to tune "correctly"...i.e., for example, the D, G & A chords will sound/play fine but the E is out of whack...& when I adjust to make the E sound better then the A & D chords go off...any suggestions? Maybe the frets are not placed correctly? Maybe I'm using the wrong strings(i.e., heavier or lighter gauge?) ...I am not very "technically" proficient, musically speaking(still can't read music tho have been trying to learn, and I learn songs by ear)and I use the guitar mainly for folk Mass on Sundays...I keep it tuned and use a capo on the second fret...thanks in advance...
