Pete.
Thanks for the great explaination...I will keep trying...if others have had this problem and solved it, I can too. Tom, at Sierra, is sending me a longer tuning screw. The hex head screws are generic at any hardware store, but I don't know about the tuning screws, they may be custom machined.
Thanks again!

Tony got it right. The trick is to continue pulling the string while tightening down the allen screw. Make sure that your adjuster is loosened all the way up so that its at its closest point to the nut before you attach the new string. I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned this but do not wrap the string all the way around the allen screw; it should only make a half circle. If you wrap it all the way around the string will cut in to itself when you tighten it down and either break immediately or prematurely.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Chuck Martin on 28 April 2002 at 05:14 PM.]</p></FONT>
