Help! Will the new 7-String Cobalt Slinky Top Heavy Bottom fit on a JP-7?

[joe web]

please help me out on this question, i´m not sure about the low B string...will a .62 string fit into the schaller locking tuners on the JP guitars?
do i have to modify the tuner maybe?

thanks for your help!

I don't think you should be too concerned, unless you're jumping way up to a .72... If I'm wrong then I'll buy you a $25 Tims card. If they have Tim Hortons in Germany. ahaha

Yes you should be fine with a .062 - make sure you give the string a good clean cut at the end (so it is perfectly round) and that the locking wheel is loosened all the way. I find that wiggling the string helps, too, for the stubborn ones that don't want to go in.
