Here's a link to the User's Manual:

Look under Rear Acess (shut up! Cruster!) and you will see how it can be done.

A little turn goes a long way.

Hi,

You should be able to access thru the rear cover.

Does that model have a super shallow bowl? If it does, you may need small hands or a flexible extension on the wrench. My Celebrity has a center sound hole so I can go in thru the strings. Hope this helps.

It was a randomized plagarism where the names where changed to make an old reference more relavent to the issuant!
It would be wrong to move in on any Witko-Doenges copyrighted material.

Why, that would be wrong!

The misspelling was unintentional as well. :rolleyes:

BTW - Welcome Blue Buddha - hope we fixed your problem. We also try to have a good time!

Peace

LOL...Oh you guys. All this reference to the rear access port on the multi-holes had me thinking of that really funny boy band song from the movie "Josie and the Pussycats".

The boy band's hit song played in the opening sequence was called "Backdoor lover"...and the pun was absolutely intended!!!!

Master Witko (StandingOvation) and I occasionally partake in some good-natured, verbal thrust & parry. From time to time when making a post, I may make a statement that can be taken as double-entendre (at my expense). In an effort to save Master Witko time - and deny him the satisfaction by beating him to the punch, I'll immediately punctuate the statement with:
(ShutUp,Witko!)


Now . . . aren't you glad you asked?


(I thought not. :-)

And Cliff is my hero!
I like to puncuate an occasional post with an allusion or two to an ongoing discussion or item from another string. It may be entertaining for a regular and is probably questionable to a new comer, sorry.

Most posts happen either over morning coffee, daytime work distraction or evening downloading!

Great place though! Hang around!

Cliff, I've described our "relationship" to others, but never thought to use the words "thrust and parry". That's just classic. And well spelled, I might add! Dave

"thrust and parry"

Fencing terms.
(not to be confused with "chain and link").

Blue Buddha - Did we answer your questions or did we scare you away?

When the Welcome Wagon shows up in a Humvee it can be a little intimidating!

No.
That's when Witko travels to Europe on business.
Although, he alluded that there isn't much ballroom in Amsterdam, and what little there is, is packed . . .

So . . . . BlueBuddha . .

Have you figured out your truss rod issue, or have we frightened you off into buying a Taylor? . .

I've heard a lot of the ballroom in Amsterdam has simply been cut off, and replaced with ballet.
