Hi guys, I have an RG550 Genesis that gives me a strange issue with the B and G string. When played together on the same fret (example: playing double stop, major 3rd on B and G strings at 5th fret), it sounds horrible and off tune. The 2 strings are perfectly intonated and the tuner reads pitch perfect notes all across the fret board. Have a listen to the below recording:

I've taken the guitar to 2 luthiers already and they couldn't solve it. Anyone else have this problem? And have you been able to solve it? It seems the only solution that worked for me is to tune one of these strings a tad sharper, but that throws off all the chords to sounding off tune.
Thanks in advance.
