I just recently got a Fesseden D10 and I love it. However, when I press the B pedal slowly there will be two clicking noises that occur and seem to be coming from where the springs are located. Anyone have any solutions? Thanks in advance.

Patrick, I just had the same problem with my 93 Mullen. I had the lower return screw(string 6) backed out to far. I was trying to make my RKL which lowers my 6th, G# to F# and raises my 1st a whole and 2nd a half, easier to engage.
I screwed the lower return screw back in a little, and no more clickin. May not be your problem though.

Here's one thing that will cause a little clicking noise.On your pull rod where the nylon
End goes on,If the threaded part of the rod is to close to the changer hole,when you push
the pedal the thread will catch on the edge of the hole in the changer,I had this happen on
one of my Emmons Guitars.It took me forever to find out that 's what was making the noise.

Have you tightened the return spring , making sure the lower arm does not lift ? Make sure the screw is actually turning inside the spring pigtail to really tighten the spring.

thanks for all of the input, the issue has been resolved.

If it is anything like mine there will be new mystery noise tomorrow.
