I read through other post here but still having trouble.
I'm trying to tune the 4th string Knee lever and "C" pedal. I've moved all the stop screws on the rod and have messed everything up. The position of the "C" pedal puller doesn't seem correct.
1. Does anyone have a picture of the under side of their MSA sidekick? (C pedal puller position)
2. In what order do you adjust the stop screws on the rod?
Thanks for any help. |

Are you sure the knee lever is being used for the 4th string. Some are set up to be used on the 2nd string and the 8th string. |

Yes, It changes both E's to Eb's.
Thanks

Are you tuning your pedal down strings with the tuning pegs and your open strings with the end tuners? This is the opposite to most guitars but the way the Sidekick must be tuned. |

Yes, I have the sidekick manual and I am tuning
exactly the way it says.
Thank you. |

Dan: I'll take some pictures of my Sidekick and post them for you. Give me a day, because I've got to charge the batteries on the digital camera. |
