    @Theorose , that does not add up. It should tune the same after new strings. Try loosening the problem string just enough to pull it out of the nut and over to the next bigger string and put some pencil graphite in the offending nut slot, and check that the bridge pin is seated correctly. Use a capo on the strings to control the string tension if adjusting the pin.

    As to setup, I think YouTube will provide you more than enough information that you will need. A string action gage will help in the setup process. No more than 1/4 turn at a time for any truss rod adjustments. Make sure your instrument is properly humidified in case that has changed lately.
