Hello all
Do the 8 push button switches need any kind of lube? I have cleaned the switch contacts using a contact cleaner. They cleaned up very well. The push buttons work well they lock in and release okay. Also on the tuner there are some ball bearing, is it a good idea to put some kind of grease on these?
Thanks Bob
