I have recently started playing the guitar. I am currently using a yamaha pacifica 012. I have noticed that some of the strings have started feeling quite loose, but when I check the tuning they seem to be in tune. I can tell that I'm not playing an octave lower or anything. How can I sort this out? Do I need new strings or something?
Strings feel loose but still seem to be in tune

Hey Sharman,
Could you possibly post a video or audio clip somewhere, picking through the strings? The only think I can think of is that the strings are very light gauge. Or, your tuner could be calibrated wrong somehow. Or, the strings are “in tune” but to the wrong pitches.
