Coordinator nuts - tighten?

From pjfolino on 5/5/2020 1:45:15 AM

Hey guys,

Question for Geoff or any others with experience. My Sunflower is about to turn 2...how quickly they grow up! It's sounding fantastic, better every week. My question: should I tighten the coordinator nuts? They're not loose - well I can't budge them with my fingers at least. Other parts have loosened and I've tightened them accordingly, e.g. tuner screws. Do I use the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" approach or would an 1/8th tighten be warranted?

Many thanks,

Peter
