Hey all, ive been reading up on different reasons why tuners may be hard to turn. Ive done some careful lubricating, applied graphite to the nut and bridge, etc. Two of my tuners are extremely tight. My mandolin is an Eastman MD515. It has Schaller tuners. When i press on the tuning peg in the direction of the headstock, it seems to get slightly easier to turn the tuner. From what i've read, the problem could be a misaligned peg. Am i right to assume this? And should i return it to Eastman to get it fixed? Thanks for any and all input!
