Sho Bud Pro 1 3X3 Traded Please Close

Post by Aaron Slivinski »

Looking to sell my Sho Bud Pro 1. Only selling because I recently bought a Mullen D10 and don’t want this one sitting around as a backup. Nashville set up and has that classic Sho Bud tone! I believe it was built in 1976 based on the serial #. There are some dings on the player side (there when I bought it) but overall it’s clean for a 45+ year old guitar. I’ll also throw in the De Armond pedal that came with it. The pedal could use some cleaning as it sounds a bit scratchy, but still a functional practice pedal. With some cleaning I’d think it’d be a decent backup.

Nice.. 2 hole pullers, 2 up one down changer, curved levers but small pedals... Ricky would know better, but I bet this was shortly before Bud went to pot metal.. This is one of the best undercarriages Bud ever built..

Encore is a really nice guitar, but if I had one it would be traded in a second for a Bud with this setup.. You don't see too many like it these days...bob
I'm over the hill and hittin'rocks on the way down!

no gear list for me.. you don't have the time......

Yes that first changer finger that had double raise, single lower, was the very first pot metal finger top but both the lower and raise arms still move horizontally so there was no fulcrum piece pushed on that fulcrom piece a worn spot on it that nobody could see.
anyways some things are actually still good little different sounding than the 6061 aluminum but if it has a Groove that you hook the string into, that is pot metal; if it has a pin, that's aluminum and this was the first cast of pot metal part everything else was normal round cross shaft curved knee lever mechanics.
