I am currently cleaning and setting up a guitar that belonged to Curly Chalker. It once featured several more pulls. I will post a cople pictures. Notice the pedals how the ends were built up to be level. This is something he done to the pedals for some reason, why I don,t know.







The guitar has alot of miles and is still in pretty good shape outside smoke and oil residu i am starting to clean today. It still has the extra pedal positions for adding all 9 rods. Also two vertical knees that work in a timed session with one taking off after a half a step raise on the other. No ideal what this was all about maybe someone knows.

Finished up. The owner wanted some new knees and several changes that he played. It turned out pretty good. Actually it should have been donated to a museum.
I was real hesitant to change it, after it had been setup
. and played by the c6 master. I think Jim would sell it, if someone was intrested .
