Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help me with this
I have a Remington steel that i bought a few years ago, one of the rods underneath has always been a bit iffy and 'loose' causing some tuning issues with my B pedal, does anyone know of anyone that could look at it for me?? I live in Leicestershire so preferably in the Midlands so i don't have to drive too far!
Thanks in advance
Darren

Hi Darren,
Can you post pictures of your guitar?
Top, changer end and underside?
I don't think it's going to be much to sort out.
It's usually the half lowers and split turnings that may stray a bit, but a simple raise on your G# to A wont be much, if that's what you B pedal does of course.
I don't think I have seen a pedal Remington before, just non pedal Remmys so I am interested to see pictures, if possible.
David H.

Thanks for the help guys, Dave has pm'd me his contact number so il call him in the week. its the 6th string i have a problem with, when i turn it it gets just to the point of being in tune and then the rods clunks and spins, then its about a semi tone sharp, drives me mad! I've uploaded some pics of the steel too, i've scanned all over the net and i cant see any other Remington steels anywhere. I bought it from Keith Buck about 4 years ago now.
Thanks again
Darren
