After restringing my GFI uni 12... my "A" pedal is a little more hard to push down on to properly raise my 5 & 9 strings. I cannot see any debris in the changer/fingers. Now I am going nuts as to what I am not seeing. Has anyone ever encountered this problem?
Is my first time in 30yrs...
The guitar is less than 4yrs old.

Did you happen to change to a different brand of strings with heavier strings or at least one heavier string? |

Hi Jack, I use the same SIT set. But the only string I changed gauges on was my 4th E .11 to .12. The reason for that was I have a bunch of .12's. Now you got me thinking. Since my C pedal which raises my 4&5 I wonder if that .12 is the prob? The C pedal seems ok... i will change it to an .11.
Something about that "A" pedal just does'nt feel right at all. I had to walk away from it for a few days...was driving me nuts.
I was wondering if the was something more I could try here b4 I ship it to GFI? Maybe remove the 5 & 9th strings.. pull the 4 rods out to let the fingers move free and possibly drop a micrscopic bit of debris out. I have a large piece of black cloth under the guitar to see if something dropped like a piece of gtr string... _________________ left handed Excel Dl0, left handed GFI UNI 12 Ultra, 2 n.ville 400's, DD3,Lexcicon MPX100... |
