Just got me a Makala Dolphin a few days ago, and I'm having great fun with it my only annoyance with it is that the c-string is somewhat hard to tune. It appears that it not only falls in volume after it's strum but also in pitch. So the best I can do about it is to get I close around the clean note of c, but it still appears to glide a good 12-15 cents. Plus this particular string goes out of tune somewhat easier than the others.
Is this do to the cheap strings that come with the Makala, or is it just because they are new? I talked to a friend who plays guitar, and she tells me that as long as your strings are new and haven't been played a lot, you'll have to tune them a lot because they aren't used to being stretched.
Any words of wisdom?
