Hi Anders, congrats on your guitar! I've tried it in the past and I've liked it.
In order to be sure that the guitar hasn't a problem, I wonder if you usually do this after changing strings: Try stretching your string, then using tremolo, then tuning. Repeat this many times until you note that the guitar keeps in tune after using the tremolo. Also, be sure that strings are correctly laid in the tuner. We have a new lesson that covers this topic: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/20-Beginner-Tips/ Please try it and let me know what happens. -------------------- My lessons

Hi Anders,
I think here is a very good video how to adjust the tremolo.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CkrKdQR6_g I had the same problem at my YWM Strat with the g-string.... but with a little bit grease with teflon (PTFE) the problem was solved... Chris |

Here is an entire thread of folks talking about adding locking tuners to their Yngwie Strat to try to cope with the tune drift. It's from way back in 2009, but it's the same issues and they suggest some specific locking tuners and and such.
I hope your tuning stabilizes and whatever you are trying now works so that you can keep the guitar stock I believe the American built strats come with locking tuners don't they? Always stretch your strings a LOT after changing to a new set. That one thing can make a wad of difference https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=32268 I have to check this out, haven´t seen a Fender with this kind of setup:)

... and the best way (IMO) is to install a zero glide nut as I have already done at my les paul.... I will do this at my strat also....
https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=56337 For the locking tuners you have to drill some holes because the YWM Strat has Vintage Tuners....

Hopefully the nut will help . Though I can't imagine it being as effective as tuners that actually lock. But there is good news!!!!
it looks like they make locking tuners to replace the "Vintage" set and they are made by fender, just for this purpose. So if just the nut doesn't do it, you still have options https://www.amazon.com/Fender-0990818100-Lo...uct_top?ie=UTF8 ... and the best way (IMO) is to install a zero glide nut as I have already done at my les paul....

If I still have problems with tuning, after lubricate, this would proably be a good options:) |

1) You don't have to do anything. It's on the back of the headstock. No one but you will ever notice.
2) Or get some 'wood filler' - it comes in many colors - push it in with a toothpick or an unfolded paper clip, wipe smooth the surface, let dry ... voila! -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
