Contact fellow forumite Danny James. He has a Harlan guitar and also taught at their music school at one time.

Danny is probably one of the more knowledgeable people on this guitar.

To adjust the pedals / copedants on a Harlin Bros. Multi-Kord, you will notice adjustment screws with locking nuts on the top side of the changer on cross bars.

There are two possibilities for each string for each pedal. There are two levers that you can choose to place the adjustment screws above on the cross bars. One will raise and the other will lower the string to --- any amount within the limits of string stretch.

So you can raise or lower each or all strings with each pedal. And the nice thing about a Multi-Kord is this can be done within a matter of minutes without having to turn the guitar upside down and spend hours to change copedants if so desired.

That said if you try to raise more than three strings at one time it will take a tremendous amount of pressure on the pedal to accomplish that. But it is possible to do it on a Multi-Kord.

One more thing for adjusting the changer on a Multi-Kord. Harlin Bros. furnished a special screw driver / socket wrench combination tool with each Multi-Kord they sold, to turn the adjusting screws and then tighten the locking nuts while holding the screwdriver so as to not turn the adjusting screw while tightening the lock nut.
