Thanks Tommy,Tommy Auldridge wrote:I did not read every post on this thread, but right from the start, I say you MUST first tune with the pedals down at the tuning keys at the key-head. After that, tune the open string notes with the lower row of hex screws at the end plate. And then, tune the notes on the strings that lower, with the top row of hex screws. Someone may have already pointed that out. All of this is assuming that the changer is already properly adjusted. If you don't follow this procedure, you will get things out of adjustment, to the point where you are un-necassarily crushing the compression springs that allow for any slack to be taken care of. If you have any thoughts on what I said, please let everyone know. Thanks, Tommy.....
That first description had my head spinning. Your explanation was short, simple, easy to follow and worked well.
Lynn Stafford set up my D-10 Promat 3 years ago and it stayed in tune really well until a couple of months ago.
I had to tweek the second string.
Been playing since 1975, but this is my first PP steel. Plays so well I don't deserve it.
