I've never tuned an all pull guitar.
once I get the strings tuned open,
which of the hex head screws do I use
for my raises and lowers?
my E to F knee lever sounds flat on the F note. which of the hex screws will raise it
and which will lower. thanks

Terry: On all pull guitars, The upper row of tuners are the raises and the lower rows lower the strings. Count across the top of the changer to the fourth set of tuners. There should be (if you have the standard set up), two tuners, one for the C pedal and one for the E to F Raise. Hope this helps
