I’m trying to gather parts (Kits) to add two left knee levers to my S10 1979 Pro 1. Anybody?
It currently has two right knee levers - E (8) to F and E’s to Eb (8 & 4).

Thanks

Thanks for your help everyone.

Thanks Pete, >>Also, that string has to seat correctly for tuning stability in general. It's sounding more like the string seating is at the root of the problem. It seems there is so much excess winding that it needs to be flattend with pliers. First I will try to re-install strings 11 and 12. If th...

Jerry, thanks for your reply too. It's interesting that you should mention the string gauge because on both strings 11 and 12, the ball ends do not seat or hook properly in the changer. The excess winding at the ball end prevents it from seating all the way. This is a new S-U12 E9/B6 Jagwire nickel ...

I moved the nylon barrel to slot 4 from slot 2 thinking this might help achieve the 1 1/2 step pull needed. I am missing something here. Th...
