Can you post a close up of the pedals or tell me why they look smooth. I am interested.

Tommy, the pedals were smooth when I got the guitar.

I'm certainly no expert on Sho-Buds but I had a 1977 or so Pro III Custom that also had the smooth pedals...

I might be mistaken but I don't see where the left knee lever is connected to the C6th neck, please advise.

follow up for winston: This is a fine Steel for sure, shown by the lower photo, the RK , not LK, is connected to the C6th 3rd string and the E9th strings 4 and 8 by way of an actuator arm to the E9th cross shaft, very typical and common on Sho Buds. The LK serves strings 4+8 . This is the later Sho Bud system, sometimes referred to as the Super Pro system, 5 hole pullers and narrow /smooth pedals. Built right around the transition date from two hole pullers to 5 hole pullers. This one has the earlier Gumby keyheads. Very easy to add additional knee levers, parts are still available . This Steel is probably from 76 or 77 , right around that time frame. These are great players.

This was built January 1978; so yes a transition mechanical parts and I would say one of the last gumby-head sho-bud's.
