It can lower a whole tone or more. I thought about building it to lower more than one string, but it would require a more complex set of stops and springs. Plus, that would be getting closer to a pedal guitar setup. At that point, just as well go to pedal guitar. This is meant to be able to get two lap tunings on one neck. Plus, the ability to move one string for a few basic pedal licks without bar slants. The diminish is easy with the wrist lever. The B on top could be tuned to E for a full standard A6. Then it would be B11th (minus the root) with the lever engaged. I think?
Re-stringing would get C6/D9 or C6/D11

Also, the lower can be moved to any string by loosening the cap screw and re-aligning the puller behind a different string.
