Sho Bud Super Pro repair info needed

It is an SD-10 Super Pro serial # 0100 which according to any information I could find on here, doesn't exist. I need a close up picture of the connections on the left knee l...

Super Pro SD-10 Serial # 0100

I'm trying to get this steel back in playing shape for someone and would like to know the model and age. I need a few parts that connect the knee levers to the cross rods. Like the set screw and whatever holds the reverse lever parts together etc.

I think somebody replaced original parts with any odd thing lying around. The cable pull looks original to me.I'm not sure about the paper clips. They may have been special order.

Help identify old steel

Can anyone tell me about this steel a friend bought recently. These name on the front says ESTATE. Is it a one off home made or was it production? Any ideas on what those white buttons were for? Does anyone have ideas for making it playable again? https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-03/1142_...

Thanks. I had found that page at one time but I went back and worked through the way it was written.
I would still like to find a source to the periods of time that the live band steel players were active.

Brazos Valley Boys steel player

I've been searching for some kind of list for the musicians in the band, primarily the steel players, and what years and albums they played on. Any hints on where to look greatly appreciated.

the best light weight speaker cabinets

I'm trying to find info on lightweight cabinets and speakers. I'm currently using the Peavey 112e cabinets. They sound great but I'm looking for less weight without giving up tone. Either 12" or 15".

I would take it for $200 if you split the shipping by US mail to Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. Shouldn't be much different from US package rates.
