Hi Folks, just picked this up today. I'm thinking it's a 6139, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I realize the knee levers are additions, and they look abit personally fabricated,but the parts look symmetric to each other, so I'm not sure. unless somebody recognizes the work.


I put some new strings on her, and it took me a little bit to figure out how the barrel actually worked in the tuning of the pedals and levers, but I think I got a handle on it now.

Serial number is 5113, if anyone has an idea what year it might be from?

Anyway, I just wanted to share, thanks, Mike
