Anyone know what these 3 rods, that are connected to 1st 3 pedals' cross shafts, do? They are adjustable. Also the are adjustable springs on the keyless head end.

Thanks

I believe that they appear to be for adjusting for cabinet drop as it appears that you have a floating keyless tuner.

This is what I suspected. Jim do you have any literature on these, both? I want to keep this guitar tuned optimal.

Thanks again

Dwight

I do not but you a hold be able to follow the rods and see what cross shafts tey are connected to and adjust to the drop of adjacent strings that aren't being changed.
