I had this very problem but with my high g string (highest pitch lowest position) with a clip on tuner. I began using my iPhone and the guitar tuna App and created a custom tuner and it works far better. Ymmv but it worked for me.

What do you mean that you created a custom tuner?

I'm an Android user, and I have the Pano Tuner app (also on iOS).

That just gave me an idea though. Maybe I'll try piping it through my effects pedal and then into the tuner. That would give me tuning with the exact effects anyway. I'll give it a shot.

In guitar tuna you can set custom tunings so I set a 3 string gdg tuning

Check your tuner. Some have a mic/vibe switch. If it is on the microphone setting, switch it to vibration. That fixed my issue...
