I actually thought the thing was going to break and wound me.
In response, I tuned it to the same pitch as the normal G.
If some of y’all have been doing this all along, WHY DIDN’T YOU SHARE THIS???
It sounds amazing, and I’m not afraid of the thing breaking.
If I’m the only one, you need to try it.
If I try to tune the octave G on my 12 string, it's so loose that it hardly even makes a sound.
Are you sure that you are not an octave up?

My solution to the high G string is to use two wound G strings which are indeed tuned the same.
