I want to assign pedal four to raise both my E strings (2 & 6) a half-step on my LeGrande.
I have plenty of free space at the changer. Has anyone any suggestions about which changer-holes I should use for this change? Where on the bell-crank should I attach the rods - near the shaft or farther away?
It's a real bear (for me) getting those C-clips installed so I'd be happier if I only had to do it once!

| roger, i believe if you are doing a half step you would use the middle hole in the changer and the 2nd hole in the bellcrank. also, i found the clips (they are 1/4 inch for a pp) at harbor freight. they are different from the original clips use can use needle nose pliers to install them....thanks jack |

Thanks, Jack.
I have loads of spare clips from the factory - the challenging part is getting them off and back on again!
I appreciate your response.
