I have never seen a Sho~Bud changer like this one, looks like it's cut off, or not even a Sho~Bud changer at all, I owned a Pro III with metal necks, and changer didn't look anything like this..but I may be wrong..wouldn't be the first time.... and seller has no feedback at all

maybe Super Pro with metal necks had a different kind of changer, I don't know
this is Sho~Bud changer I am familiar with (on metal necks), I haven't seen a different one ( on Pro series guitars)

| Looks to me, like someone ground off the tabs to possibly make string changes easier. They certainly didn't bother with a fine finish on the grinds. Depending on what else is Hacked Up, it still could be a good deal, if all it needs is a new changer |

The changer looks to be from
the Sho~Bud Baldwin era when
the Sho~Bud Crossovers were
being marketed.

Not Many Super Pros had aluminum necks but they are out there. They where special order most in black lacquer finish.

The guitar is not mine.
I just saw it and thought someone might want to buy it.
I definitely didn't know I was doing something wrong.
My apologies to the forum.

I have one like you've described Danny. The changer doesn't look or mount like the one on eBay. |

I wish some Sho Bud expert would chime in but I think the necks and changer have been swapped out on this guitar and can't imagine why. I've never seen a Bud with that kind of changer unless it's just an experiment by Sho Bud at some time.

Henry,
I certainly don't claim to be a Sho~Bud expert by any stretch, so just out of curiosity I posted a topic about this same guitar earlier on the same day it appeared on eBay.

Yeah, this is an odd one... even for Sho-Bud.
The changers fingers look like an older, Crossover era changer, but the rest of the changer looks stock...3up/2down. So does the rest of the undercarriage.
My SuperPro has alum necks, and the changers look just like the pic that Damir posted earlier. The necks do encircle the changer, in a wraparound fashion, but there's something about the profile of those necks that doesn't look exactly right... maybe it's because of the cutout that was done to fit that p/u in there. |

| Its possible that he cut those off to get the changer axle out of the changer, which really wasn't necessary to do. |
