I need some
pedal rod pullers
rod clips
cross shafts 5/16 hex
cross shaft brackets
knee lever brackets
knee lever itself
bell cranks
I'm tossing around a couple ideas, one is replacing three parts and the other is adding a couple LKL levers.
Please email me at wc@wcedgar.com
Thanks

I checked with him but he seemed reluctant to sell me any and since I don't or haven't played out for a couple years I don't think I can afford the machined ones. Someone has to have some that's done some conversions on them in the past.
Thanks

Michael Yahl has a lot, if not all, of that on his site.

His stuff is after market also. This is a cost issue, I want the die cast stuff.
If it's junk, what won't anyone sell me any? I can buy a new guitar for what it would cost me to replace all of my die cast stuff with machined stuff. My stuff works just fine and I promise I get a great tone to boot.



I'll track some down,
Thanks

On second thought, is there anyone in the US other than James Moorehead that may have some Sho Bud original die cast parts?

Like I said, I have a few things I'm tossing around maybe doing to my guitar and want to check all the possibilities out price wise since I haven't played out in a couple years.

Thanks! Smile

Who got all of John Coop's Sho-Bud stock parts after he passed away? Having been at his place i saw with my own eyes the huge inventory he had. Huge.

Whoever did has my Lloyd Green Sho-Bud 'cause Coop was "working" on it when he left us.

I knda want it back.

I checked out Michael Yahl's site.
This is exactly what I'm looking for. I'll see which parts need replaced and order them from his site.

Thanks for the tip!Smile

I'd also like to know that. Maybe they have my pedal rack.

My Understanding of what happened to all the stuff at Coop's. The Police boarded up the house after his passing and eventually the whole place got ran-sacked....

Ricky,
The people in his neighborhood wouldn't have been into steel guitars. But scrap aluminum?,,,, probably.
