I'm rather skeptical of that as a fix.
I reckon it's a hack that only works
if you aren't aiming for equal temperament tuning.

i.e. it works if you stick to the usual guitarist chords,
but otherwise makes the guitar untunable.

All it's doing is making all the fretted notes on the G
string a bit sharper.
