Wow! Not too challenging at all. Thank you everyone and GREAT advice on 1/2 turn / 1/4 turn from Bobby D. Jones!!

I’ve got my sierra set to factory specs and I’m really enjoying it.

Thanks ...

Following up...

Jbm, I went to Brandt Precision Machining and they were very helpful. They did not have the die needed to thread the 1/8th inch rod. Bobby is right, it is 6-40 which does not seem t ...

Jerry this is great stuff, thank you!

This is fantastic! I really wish I could get ahold of his CDs, I’ve messaged on Facebook but haven’t heard back yet.

Thanks Jerry. Hey do you have the instructional booklet he wrote that those ...

Thanks Jerry, mine is missing one of the “inner” knee levers so down the road I may try to replace that. I’ve found the factory copedent for the non-SE model but if you have one for the SE somew ...

Thanks for the reply BJ, I think that’s exactly what happened in this situation. I’m going to try to connect with Dave at Jbm’s recommendation today! If he can help me trim a few extra pull rods ...

Jerry, that’s very generous and much appreciated. The tuning nut on my Sierra is described here:

Jbm awesome recommendation! They’re not to far from me! I just got off the phone with Dave and he said y’all had just spoken. I really appreciate you looking out. I’m going to swing by today / t ...

Hi Jerry,

Good question, and thanks for chiming in.

This is the Sierra and it has barrel nuts in the bell crank which the rod threads through. I did run the problem rod and another rod through ...

Thank you, Bob! Great to know the tools needed. I think I’m about to enter a season of buying tools…

Is there anyone near Austin who could help cut down and rethread a pull rod? My LKL rod is threaded too small and slips right through the tuning nut. I’d love to recycle it and have it do the work f ...

Joe,

Mostly I have been using one called Luna by a company called Universal Audio. See the thread here: https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=402302

I use Luna primarily and I really enjoy it! It does its best to emulate analog workflows, so if that’s familiar to you it may be an easier option than others. I have one of Universal Audio’s inter ...

Hi Joe,

I have a few DAWs I go between. Logic is one of them, but I don’t use it as often. Happy to help if you have any questions!

Thanks,

Posting for future reference to save time for someone else.

Thank you for the reply, Jon. I’ve been in contact with Jim! He has been great to work with and I’ll likely be making a purchase with him in the near future. I wanted to put a line out on the foru ...

Bringing this back! I’m curious if a copy of the booklet surfaced or if you heard back from Bill! I too am trying to track one down!

I’ve acquired a sierra 14 string in E7 and am interested in bringing it into factory tuning specs. I’m in need of:

2 rods for pedal 5
1 rod for pedal 8

Interested in any nylon parts.. espec ...
