Dial cord restring question
#3

I had the same problem on a 40-190 recently. One segment was tight, the other loose. I worked the tuning knob back and forth a few times, and the tension evened out, as tab10672 suggested.

The next day, though, the string had stretched a little, so it was too loose again, and the cord slipped. I took one end off and shortened it a little, put it back on, worked the tuner back and forth a time or two, and it all works fine now.

Thankyou for the kind words sir. I double checked it with my component tester and it read 2.7 ohms at .02mH.Stormlord5500 — 08:14 AM
