When I tighten it, it gets sharper, but when it reaches around a D#, it seems to drop back down to C, and then its just this repeated. Is there someone who has had this problem before?

The teeth of your tuning gear wore down, and it's now slipping. They're honestly really cheap to replace. In fact it was so cheap; the guy at the store just gave it to me. I still bought a pack of strings. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
