G# to F# on LDG??

The .020P won't quite make the drop to F# before it starts to raise again. Does this require .018P? or maybe .022P? My guess is .022P. I am putting this question out for another player.
Thanks
Dennis
If I recall, the LDG has helper springs on the raise. Maybe the spring on #6 has to be removed?<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Dennis Detweiler on 29 November 2002 at 03:44 PM.]</p></FONT>

By all means, remove the raise helper spring from the 6th string. With a plain .020 that is an easy raise and it needs no help.
If you still have a problem, try a lower return spring with less tension.

.018P will require less movement than .022P. It will be excessively sloppy, though.

Yes, Exactly what Earnest said; I'll have to mirror.
Get those raise springs "OUTTA THERE"!!!
If you have another change on that knee lever....back it off till you get the 6th string figured out...then tune it back up and you may need to find a different finger setting for it.
Have fun.

Makes logical sense to me. We'll try the raise spring elimination first. I recall having to remove the raise helper on my Zum when I added that change.
Thanks guys
