Hey everybody...... I need some help with my ShoBud D10 "professinal". My A and B pedals have really gotten sloppy. Who ever had this guitar didn't play much on the lower neck, because all pedals past the C pedal are nice and tight. A and B have gotten real sloppy movement side to side. Can I correct this by takeing the bar off and disasembling it??? Are there shims or washers that may be worn in the hole of the pedal that mounts on the bar shaft??? Am I any where close to what is wrong or am I off base and don't know what the----I am talking about. Could use all the info on what ya all think.... Thanks......... Jack<><

yeah jack...i don't have my good old professional anymore, but i think if you look you'll be able to determine how the shaft going through the pedals comes out by sliding it sideways after loosening some screws..and maybe the brackets. i'd just put a few washers..probably thin nylon ones.. between the sloppy pedals or on the ends...whatever snugs it up to your liking.

Loosen the set screws on the blocks. Then pull the rod out. It has a type of washer in between the pedals. Replacing those might fix you right up.

The correct washer is pretty hard to find. I do have them in stock, if you want to email me.
