    Roland GK-3B and the Zoom B6

    Thanks, Roland GR88 for the insight. I was afraid that would be the case.

Thanks again...

    Good Day Gentleman Thanks for the timely and forthright feedback. In retrospect, I too noticed some of the same corrective issues that You observed - i.e. string cut too short, maybe 1.5 wraps around the tuning peg and silk binding at the leading-edge of the string retainer. I WILL be making...
