I'm curious. Tell me if the mounting bolt(s) on the front (far left) end of your key head is bolted through the body and frame on your guitar or bolted through the wood body of the guitar. My Zum key head is mounted with two bolts through the body and one at the end of key head which goes through the body and frame flange. I've always had trouble with temperature sensitivity in tuning the guitar compared to my MSA. This might be the culprit? If so, I can relocate the mounting screw at the end. Or, I can drill a larger hole in the flange and allow the bolt head to pass through the flange and tighten down on the body.
