Kahler 2315 fine tuner won't go in
Kahler 2315 fine tuner won't go in
check for blockage. ( superglue, metal bits, wood )
( I found a piece of wood in one of my Kahlers ).
if nothing, then take of the bridge, only four screws after removing the strings.
and take it somewhere to have the hole re-tapped ( I hope that's the word )
first the same size, and if that doesn't help, slightly bigger.
or buy a new Bridge, that Hanneman is worth it:p
Thanks a lot for the help, all of that is exactly what I was thinking. But before going through the effort, I thought I'd take a shot in the dark and see if it's some kind of problem someone else has had and fixed a little easier. Doesn't sound like it could possibly be much else than that, but if you or anyone else has any other ideas of what it might be, let me know anyway since I don't think I'll get around to taking the bridge off and all that today.
I looked up the part, it would apparently cost $100 + shipping for the piece I need. Not exactly cheap, for what it is. And I don't really think it matters if they knew about it or not, I'd assume it would be part of their job to look over the whole thing so they know exactly what they're selling. So I think $100 back for the cost of that piece would be fair, or if I can find one cheaper somewhere, then whatever that cost would be, I don't care as long as it's replaced one way or another. I think that would be fair, but again, I'm not expecting much. I did get a good deal on it, so I almost feel bad even asking for that, but it IS kind of a big issue that I think they should have known about, and they did tell me there were no issues at all with it.
Thanks for the suggestion though. Also, if someone has one, I'd prefer to get a black one from the start, since a chrome or brass piece would look out of place and I don't have any paint or de-greaser for it.
Does the thread look damaged?
try one of the others in its place, if that works or not, then you can tell which part is at fault .
