Adjustment of Multiple-String Half-Stop

Post by Toshiyuki Shoji »

Hi everyone on the forum,

This may already be a known idea, but I’ve uploaded a YouTube video explaining how to align the pitches of half-stops that affect multiple strings.
It’s a simple method: installing two pull rods on a single bell crank.
If your changer has enough space and a half-stop mechanism installed, I think this idea could work on other brands of steel guitars as well.
I’d be honored if this is helpful to everyone.
Thank you.
