Sho Bud volume pedal help

Post by Travis Bubenik »

Welp - my Sho Bud volume pedal kinda came all apart inside - pot came loose from the part where it’s mounted to the base of the pedal, string came loose, etc. etc.

I’m no expert on pot pedals and restringing them and such so - wondering if anyone simply has a picture of the guts of a Sho Bud pedal they could share? Or similar pedal sample picture so I can just figure out how to get it all back where it’s supposed to be?

Thanks!

Thanks guys. With those links and this YouTube video I found for restringing a Goodrich (below) I got it figured out and back together.

Probably don’t have the string wrapped around the original way it was, but I basically just followed the method from this video and it seems to be working just fine:
