My thoughts exactly. Are you stringing your guitar correctly? God , I feel terrible asking that. But Antony75 is right. Get lots of string on the peg head (but not too much) Keep tension on the string while winding. And then start bending. My Pauls stays in tune. Sure, the G string likes to go a little flat but don't all Pauls do that?
I tried the wrap around. Felt weird on my palm. (uh, that sounded bad)
Viking is correct. The idea is so you can put the stoptail down all the way to the body, thus generating more sustain. Wrapping your strings out the back lessens the angle of the string as it goes to the tunomatic. Makes sense?
Lots of tuning vids on Youtube. I won't insult you by posting a link.
