I just finished replacing the strings on my S10 BMI and started the tuning prodcess.
The open tuning went well then I started the pedals and knee levers. This is were my mind went bonkers.
I've changed the strings a few times but never noticed and was wondering if anyone else ever encountered not having to adjust the tuners for the knees and pedals.All were in tune and the opens returned to pitch when released.
I don't know if it ever happened to me or not, before.
Seems wierd to me but who is complaining? Has anyone else ever had this happen? |

| Did you, perhaps, put different gauge strings on this time? That would be enough to throw everything out of kilter. |

All pedals and knee-levers were still in tune after a string change?
What a wonderful day!
Actually, it happens quite often with me. I always use the same brand of strings on my guitars. After the strings settle in, very few adjustments need to be made.

| To be honest I would NOT expect to have to change the mechanics ie the rod adjustment. There is certainly an argument to change one string at a time too to minimise the body flex. and resettlement. |

I rarely have to adjust my nylon tuners, ever. Some fine tuning, here and there....
