New steel player. Just changed strings for the first time and now my A & B pedals seem to be a little flat. I don't know how to adjust them. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. |

Hey Steve, just go to the end of your guitar and look at the opening. If there are those nylon hex tuners then you step on your A or B pedal to see which ones are moving. then to raise the pitch of the pedal raise you'll just tighten them. If you've got a push pull, step on the pedal and tune it at the peghead. Then let off of the pedals and go the the endplate and tune the basic tuning through the holes at the appropriate slot.....Have a good 'un..JH------------------

Steve, you may wonder why this happened. Good chance the new strings were different gauges than the ones you replaced. Best of luck! |

Prepare to keep tuning your strings for the next few hours while they stretch around for a bit  |
