And now... my Sho bud Super Pro is reassembled and all seems to work but... for some reason cannot get enough travel on the C pedal to pull the E to and F#. What am I missing here?

I encountered this once on my Bud and found (to my embarrassment) that the pedal was hitting the floor. Needed to adjust the pedal rods.

You might also try moving the pull rod to a different hole on the bell crank; further from the cross rod. Also pedal stop screw on front apron can be adjusted to gig more pedal travel. Ahdy H.

The bellcrank hole nearest to the end will give the longest pull, make sure you are not over pulling, where the return springs pulls the string back.

The lowest hole in the changer will also give the longest pull if you are raising the string up!
