Hey y'all,
I started playing around June with a Lanikai LU-21 with Aquila strings. So far it's been a great instrument! But in the last week or so I've noticed that my E string is sharp on the first fret. It tunes perfectly to E, but press on the first fret and my Snark tuner shows it about 5 marks over F. It's audibly off even to my tone-deaf ears.
Does this mean it's time for a new string? A ten year old uke player I know suggested I try restringing it in a slightly different position. Could there be some other problem I'm not aware of?
Thanks!
