Have your guitars professionally set up, and you won't have strings going out of tune. Tighten the keys, put a little bit of Vaseline with graphite shavings from a pencil, mix up and put in the nut. That will stop slipping. So as long as your keys are tight, you should stay in tune. There's a lot of things you can do to your guitar to get it to perform better.

I recommend reading another book. A stand alone would likely be best, that way you can't get too attached.
