What tool do you use to adjust the palm bender on your lap steel? Does it require a tool from the manufacture?


Thanks

Adjust what? Tuning is adjusted with your fingers on the little stop screws.

That's right, you can adjust by hand and if it goes out a lot, you can put a little loctite on it but not the hardening one. I even have gone over to putting a wrap of teflon tape on the screws on some benders.

There is a center screw that concerns me. So I can adjust it with the fingers?

Thank You
