I have a freind that lives across state that has a old Kalamazoo mandolin, he said that the"A" string on his mandolin , that he noticed that if he tunes the two strings when they are open and in tune, one goes out of tune as he frets it. even on just the 2nd fret. But if he tunes them together fretted on the fifth fret, then they sound in tune except when hitting the open strings. Any ideas why this is ?
