This is an interesting thread. I also believe it has nothing to do with the strings. My purple super sport has one string that won't stay in tune any time I look at the tremolo. I've lubricated the nut, stretched the strings, etc. Nothing works. I may take it to a tech, but to be completely honest, I'm about to lower the tremolo flush and add a Tremel-no in the back.
I thought about adding a locking nut, but everyone here said that was a no-no, so I ditched the idea. It stinks that I barely use a tremolo anymore because I can't afford for the guitar to go out of tune mid-song.
The Axis is awesome because everything is locking. I know some people hate Floyds, but for me, it's the only thing that works. My grief with those are that it is such a hassle removing the arm, therefore requiring a HS case to go anywhere.
