I'm adding a RKL to my ZB D10, and while I've got a pretty good idea about where to place it, I wanted to check if there was any common wisdom out there to consider- I'd love to not screw it up and have to re-drill.
It'll probably play on both necks. Right now, my LKL lowers E's, and the RKR lowers D# to D. The new one will probably lower the B's, though I'm still considering that.

thanks,

Matt

Since you already have a RKR, I would put the RKL at a comfortable location on the other side of your knee. I have found that having the shafts 5-1/2" to 6" apart works good for me and my knee and how I sit.
