Hi Peter,

When a string is lowered (In this case 6th string G# to F#), the lowering finger is pushed back to the lowering adjustment screw. There is slack in the raise rod adjustment that allows the ...

I lower string 6 with pedal 1 (G# to F#) and pull it back to G with RKL. Use the pull rod from the B pedal, a collar, and bellcrank tuner. My RKL also lowers the 2nd and 9th. It doesn't effect the 6th ...

Thanks Carl!
I'll try to answer your questions.

1. The LKL and LKR are spaces normal except for allowing room for the LKR to move left when lowering the 5th string to Bb. That's normal for a P/P. The ...

I raise both the 5th and the 10th to C with LKV3. Since I lower the 4th and 8th to D# with LKL, I cannot use both, so I use the 2nd string D# for the dim. There are a lot of uses for the C on the 5th. ...

I have a 13 string BMI that I sometimes play at home, but when playing out, I play my P/P!

Thanks Ricky and Carl!

I have the C on a knee lever on my P/P. I think I,ll do the same on the BMI.

I Installed a bar with set screws behind the tuner for tuning splits on my BMI. I tune the C with the tuner adjustment and the Bb with the set screw and all is fine. The C#,C,B, and Bb tune and play i ...

One of you with an all pull guitar that has a tuneable split, do this test. Does your tone get better (or change) when the pull finger is in contact with the split tuning screw? My guess is, there is ...

I have the 2nd and 9th string lowers on RKL I use the hit on the 9th string to tune the half stop (D) on the 2nd. Since I don't raise the 9th, I use the raise tuning screw to tune the half stop. This ...

Thanks all!

Does any one do this? I'd like to thy this change but my BMI will just barely make D#. I use the D6 tuning that you get with the B pedal a lot and having a D on the 4th would be nice. I know it's ther ...

I use the D# to E change a lot so tuning to C# will not work for me. If I tuned to C#, I would need two knees to play E to D#. If I want to play E to D# (2nd string) and E to F# (4th string),I don't h ...

The A to Ab (LKV2)is a must for me. I use it a lot with pedal 7 (C to D and A to B) to get a 9th (split to Bb). Works good with the 6th string E to F (RKL) raise for a minor. It can also be split with ...

I have it on RKR (no C pedal). I use it with the A and B pedals to get the B and C pedal effect. I don't think I could do all three on the left leg. I split it with my LKL (E's to D#) to get an F on t ...

A lot of us steel players use two amps and play very loud. Does this make use sound more in tune? Or, maby we do this so that we don't here the instruments that tune differant than we do. The differan ...

I have this change on my P/P but I don't use the B pedal. I lower the 6th G# to F# with pedal 1 and pull it back to G with my RKL. RKL also lowers strings 2 and 9. Since this ain't no "all pull guitar ...

Carl has it right, except for one thing. It can be done with one lever. Use the collar on the push rod to get the Bb and the end of the push rod to get the C (split with the A pedal). You can tune the ...

Bad idea! With the proper tools, it problem could be done. I've had no reason to try.

It would be a lot of work but you could take the fingers from the 9th string or any string that you do not raise.

I beleive that when you play The E-9th tuning you are also playing the B-6th. Most players have a knee lever that lowers the E's to D# and another that lowers the D to C#. With that said, the only thi ...

I believe the reason for an adjustable bridge on a guitar, bango, or any instrument with frets, is to compensate for pushing the string down to the fret. Steels do not have frets and I don't think th ...
