My Pro III, Pressing the B pedal 6th string G# to A, the A goes out of tune {Flat} constantly. Is there an adjustment I can make to prevent this? Thanks!

You may need to replace the nylon tuning nut on the changer. If they are to loose they will back off or slip.

Eddie, if it keeps drifting, I would not look at the stop. Theyre unlikely to keep moving.

My 76 Pro III has the 3/8" or 1/2" short nylons on it as opposed to the longer ones my S~P has on it, 7/8-1"?
