EMCI Question

TRAP TRULY · From: Mobile , AL

I was wondering if any of you EMCI owners would look and see how your 2nd string half stop (D-C#), 9th sting lower, and 1/2 stop tuning nut (in endplate) are set. I cant find the right leverages in the changer and bellcranks to give me the solid half stop feel on the 2nd string.Any help would be great.
thanks,trap

Trap,
I just took a look at both my EMCI's and here's what I have. Assume your guitar to be in upright position and top end plate hole to be #1 of 6, and top bell crank slot to be #1 of 5.
Second string rod in lowest position on both end hole(#6) and bell crank(#5).
Ninth string rod is in #6 hole on end and #4 slot on bell crank.
Special rod for adjusting the half stop is in the middle of the three holes and #4 position on the bell crank.
I recall having to do quite a bit of trial and error to get the balance right.
Hope this helps.
John
