DOWNSHIFTER
INSTALLING THE STRING
To install a new string insert the ball end of the new string into the slot and place the
ball end into the internal hook area of the saddle as shown. Pull the string tight to the
saddle and restring the rest of the string as you normally would on the machine head.
SPECIAL TUNING
The Downshifter also allows the pitch to be raised by setting the standard tuning
while the lever is in the lower position. When the lever is raised the pitch will also be
raised and can be adjusted to the desired pitch.
The Ibanez DOWNSHIFTER allows the pitch of a string to be dropped to a preset desired position with a simple
lever operation. To achieve precise tuning for both the up and down positions, you will need to preset both lever
settings before operating the Downshifter.
TUNING
First check that the Downshifter lever arm is raised to the up position then tune the
string normally using the standard tuning machines on the headstock.
(Note: the Downshifter tuning screw has no effect on the pitch in the up position.)
Next, lower the lever on the Downshifter to the down position and the pitch of the
string will drop down. Adjust the rear tuning screw clockwise to reduce the pitch, or
counter clockwise to raise the pitch. This adjustment can be done by hand or with a
standard screwdriver or a coin until the desired down pitch is acquired. (The preset
factory pitch is set one whole step down to D.) When the lever is raised to the up
position, the thumbscrew can be turned freely but will have no effect on the raised
lever pitch. However, it will affect the settings of down lever pitch.
PLEASE NOTE: The Downshifter device was designed to provide the highest level of
pitch accuracy. However, it should be understood that the Downshifter is a
mechanical device. Pitch variations and tuning readjustments, especially after
frequent use, are to be expected.
