i got some new d'addario extra light strings this weekend and put em on and they played fine, until today. i started bending the strings and noticing every time i bend a string it goes out of tune. what the hell? i dont know what to do and im thinking my problem is that i put the strings on the wrong way or something. or maybe i tied the strings around the pole too many times areound. i dont know but i dont feel like re-stringing them but if thats the problem then ill do it. here's a pic of the tuning knobs ... also can someone send me a link on the proper way to string a guitar so i can see if i did it right?







aah i feel like smashing my guitar! anyway from that you can see how many times the string wrapped around the pole (hopefully my gay camera isnt blurred out).. is that the problem?
