Want to trade Excel U12 for S10 or sell $1800 + shipping

Post by James McPhail »

Finally got time to try this again. Older Excel U12 8/5 with lock lever. Want to trade for good S10 at least 3/3. Long scale would be extra nice. Prefer not to ship. Will make donation to forum. See pics. Ask questions.

Copedant and other details

Post by James McPhail »

First, I play in D, rather than E. Be prepared. Adjustments will have to be made as the tensions/pulls will change. Even beyond that, it is not well set up. This will be a project. As you see in the picture, some (very little) of the hardware is not original equipment. I don't desire or intend to do anything to the setup. I feel a "loaded" U12 swapped for a basic S10 deserves slack, and I will have to make adjustments on my end. There are 3 unused bellcranks and a rod for pedal 5. Below is the copedant as best as I can determine.

Trading makes it much harder. Might have better luck selling it outright then buying what you want.

Copedant corrected and weight

Post by James McPhail »

I corrected the chart. (see above). Thanks Jack.

The weight on digital bathroom scales is 46.5 pounds.

I cannot find any numbers on this steel. I do not know the build date/age.
