Sho Bud Professional - Brass Tuning Collar Slippage

Post by Steve Mueller »

I have a 1973 SB Professional D10. I've noticed some slippage of the brass tuning collars after playing for an hour or so, especially on the #1 & #3 pedals(E9) and the 7th pedal(C6). Has anyone else noticed a similar problem? If so, what's the fix? This model has the "baskets" that the rods run through, with the collars then attatched to the rods.
