Sho Bud Knee Lever Kit

Post by David Spicer »

Is there anyone out there in SteelVille who knows where I can get Sho Bud KL kit for a early 70's Pro 1? I see from other posts there is someone called John Coop who makes them but all the links I have found for him are dead.

I just bought this guitar and it's a beauty, S10 E9, 3 + 2. Over 30 years old and hardly used. Showroom condition. Only 2 KL though and the E to F change is on string 8 only. Same lever does D# to D on string 2. I am no Paul Franklin, but I sure miss that high E to F change!

It would be nice to get the right parts to keep the guitar original. I can do a hack from another, branD as mech is all pull, but only as a last resort

So a Steel Guitarist in Australia is told by a Steel Guitarist in France how to contact someone in the USA. That's pretty cool when you think about it.
Thanks Very Muchly. David "call me Daddy Hank" Spicer
