My custom made guitar is causing me a few issues.

I put some lighter strings on it and tuned up and everything seemed ok. However changing chords some notes are really out of tune.

So what could be causing this and how do I go about sorting it?

Hi Olly, almost certainly the truss rod would need adjustment if you've gone a lot lighter, best to get the builder to check it out, or it could be the nut, good luck,
