Installation:
To install, loosen the Nut on the desired tuning key.
Put the String Drop in between the Nut and the Washer and the retighten the
Nut.
With the under block (piece with the 2 Phillip head screws) loosened, slide it to where it’s firm against the headstock. Then tighten both screws to hold it in place.
Tips:
Place the TAB with the Fine Tuner Screw as close as possible
above the String.
If the string needs to get more pitch, loosen the string and
while winding it back up, make sure the string is winding up instead of the
usual winding down. The same works in reverse if you’re getting to much pitch.
This will usually get you the pitch you need.
Tuning:
(Using the big E String as an example to drop to D) With the
String Drop disengaged tune the string to D. Then engage the String Drop and use the Fine
Tuner to tune to E.
Always disengage and then engage again several times and
retune each time until the guitar string is stretched out. Usually a dozen
times is more than enough to get the guitar string stretched out.
The Timara String Drop works on just about every Nut/Washer
Tuning Key Guitar, but if you’re having trouble getting it to work, call or
email us for support.
Perfect for Drop D Tuning, D-A-D-G-A-D and other alternate
tunings.
For a GREAT Effect, slowly DROP or RAISE the string to add
cool effects!

Banjo.
Easily fits in case or gig bag!
Designed so you can even stack 6 in a row!
RIGHT OR LEFT HAND MODEL: Left hand models also work on 3x3's for the little E, B and G strings. Most likely, if you're right handed and using the String Drop for the BIG E String, you'll order a Right Hand model.
