boundsteelblues Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 Everything went well drilling the pin holes for my tuners except for one. It was offline. I must have measured wrong. I enlarged the hole to what brings the tuner back in line, but should I expect problems from the freeplay? Should I fill the hole and drill again? The fix wouldn't be visible once the tuner is in, but neither is the larger hole. I'd leave well enough alone, but I'd rather fix it than have problems from it later. http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb188/b...es/DSC04318.jpg Quote

If string tension will pull it away from the desired position, maybe something a bit stronger, like some wood shaped to fill the gap? Quote
Ledzendrix1128 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 shove some toothpicks in there! it'll make it a little tighter fit and they shouldn't be visible once you put the tuners on Quote
