I just realized that if I tune my low e string perfect (according to my fancy vibration reading tuner) then the string gets progressively sharper as you move down the frets.. never to another note, but sharp, none the less.
If I tune low e just slightly flat (about 1.5 notches on the tuner) the notes fretted are perfect..
Is this a normal thing?? Can it be fixed? Should I tune it so the fretted strings are correct or the open string? Split the difference?
I'm not good enough to tell how big of a deal it is, but its driving my OCD crazy.
The guitar is a Taylor GS mini so not super fancy but should be tunable? It stays in tune for days, otherwise.
