I am real careful to make sure I have the correct amount/number of windings are my tuning pegs, and I make sure no windings crossover another. This certainly helps the guitar stay in tune.
Now for the question, does anyone know a rule or tip to determine how much slack you start with to acheive the the results above? I don't know how I do it, I just kinda guess and it usually works out, but I was thinking that there must be something more scientific or practical to measure the how much string is needed to wind around the posts the best number.
I hope you understand my question, it's kinda out there.....lol
