Vert Lever adding to Carter Starter

I had a second hand Carter Starter for a couple of years. It fitted my budget at the time, and I didn't know whether I would stick at playing PSG in the long run. I liked everything about it except that one of the knee levers needed adjusting regularly. I decided to upgrade to a "Professional&q...

Any issue in changing 6th string to wound instead of plain
