Change thumb Pitch
« on: September 08, 2009, 03:21:09 PM »
Can you change the thumb pitch without redrilling the thumb. My current pitch is 0 and 0. I want to put some reverse pitch in the thumb but just maybe a 1\8 or a 1\4. Please let me know.

Thanks

Some people thinking well of course not... You can actually make your thumbhole to big and then place tape starting mid ways down your hole working your way up. After maybe 3-4 pieces of tape, then coer it up with a black piece to keep it smooth and it will change your pitch considerably.

 If the pitch isnt exactly right try some more pieces of tape and place them at diff locations until u do get that desired pitch. Hope this helps, John

or just reslug it. then you can try any pitch for a fairly cheap price at most shops.
