Has anyone done this?
I would like to swap lowering my E's from LKR to RKL. Also, I would like to raise my first string 1/2 step on the swapped LKR along with the 7th string

i remember askin' Doug when inquiring on the Stage One if it was possible to have the E lowers on RKL
perhaps he had an "issue" on that but he confirmed that it was not possible
i don't hold it against him 1 bit mind you
it's a shame that's it's not available tho'
as to doin' the change over i have no idea Chris
it might be feasible but then again it might not
perhaps Doug will jump on in here

Doug told me a good while back that the Stage One knee levers do not have reversing abilities. In other words, the lowers have to be done with levers moving right, and the raises with the levers moving left.

Thanks guys. Seems I remember something about that now.
I only use the guitar when I fly. Sometimes it's hard to setup to play on a guitar with a different setup.
I guess I'll actually need to practice before I leave.

after all the glowing accounts about the stage one, this seems to be a serious limitation.

I am sure it could be done .You just have to work out the physics . Still it would add extra weight which is one of the great things about the Stage one
