I recently bought a Super Pro which after a few changes and additions, I really like, except I miss having tunable splits, especially on string 6. I know it's possible to drill and tap in a screw. I'm just not sure about doing it myself and wondered if anybody out there has done this?
Thanks,

Joe, I have the split tuning feature on all three of my Sho-Buds. I just finished refurbishing a SuperPro and the "splits" were installed. We have A jig for drilling the holes after the changer plate is removed.
I could email you a more detailed photo if you would like.

Well, I took the challenge and drilled and tapped a hole in the appropriate location and it WORKS!! I now have a tunable split on the 6th string E9! The other split I use alot is on string 5 but that seems to balance out without any alteration. Thanks Jeff, if you see this.
I'd still like to see the photo from Leon, too.
Thanks. |
