Sho King , Bud parts build

Post by Johnie King »

A Bud parts build is so easy just like eating a Elephant a bite at a time.!!!

With the one over one Bud changer an original 22 k Bud pickup this steel sounds like a Good Bud.

She also has zero cabinet drop.

If you notice this bud parts Build has no step down in cabinet.
I like positive adjustable positive stops.
The knee flags are adjustable an comfortable an each knee leaver has tilt adjustment!

Ron the end plate idea as been done before.
I would like too have a couple sets of real in plates.
Real professionally made end plates would make for a much faster an better build.
