On my fessy SD10 3x5 when tuning my 6th G# with my peterson strobe o flip, I notice that if i hit my E lever the 6th string goes sharp. Makes my guitar go out of tune when i use b pedal and e lever or what ever i do using the e lever. Any Ideas anyone.

| Look at the changer fingers or in the back where the nylon tuners are. Sometimes on my Fessy, the top level changers get caught up on the bottom level ones. I just take the tip of a small screwdriver and GINGERLY pry them off each other. |

That's called 'cabinet raise'.
The tension on the instrument is lessened (by lowering the E strings), so the other strings all raise in pitch slightly.
This is usually most noticeable on a plain sixth string, using a wound sixth will make the problem disappear |

I'll check the fingers, I have tried a wound 6th previosly and had trouble with the string returning properly when i released the B pedal. Wasn't sucessful adjusting the return spring so I went to a plain 20 gauge and cured that problem. That was some time ago before I noticed my current problem. Might have to go back to a wound and try again. gonna go check it and get back to the forum. thanks for the responses. Roy

I think Richard nailed it. Checked again and found that 3, 5,6,7,9,10 raise when I lower e's.

The one that drives me nuts is the flattened 6th string when the A pedal is engaged. Annoying!!
The only guitar I've owned with little or no cabinet drop is my Sho~Bud Professional. Like a rock. |
