Thanks Patrick! She sounds as good as she looks

I’ve been back and forth on whether to sell this steel but I’ve decided to see if there’s any interest. I have two and I can barely play just one Very Happy

Very Good Eric, Job well done for your first time. You can get addicted to this. Take Care & Be Safe, J.R.

Thank you very much JR, I can definitely see how it could be addictive!

Eric, change the Sho-Bud. For these kind of parts go to Micheal Yawl at P.S.G. Parts. A very nice Gentleman to deal with. His site shows you all the parts. Your Okie Friend, J.R.

First, I decided to move a knee lever. Then with all the nice clean pics I saw of other 6139s, I decided to take the plunge. Lots of fun so far just hoping I don’t end up with extra parts 😅

Okay, thanks so much for the info!

Thanks for the advice, Kenny and Jerry, it’s much appreciated. Based on what you all have said I’m going to try and find a way to move the RKL on the Sho~Bud to the LKR, I just have to find or ada ...

So I have an Emmons Push Pull that has both Es on the left knee. Assuming that I would want to have both guitars setup the same, which would make the most sense to change? Are parts any more readily a ...

Are you able to replicate the decal on the front of this steel? Doesn’t really need to be arched. Thanks

Not sure about resources. I got my 6139 in '72 and installed the other KL's shortly after, and the only way I knew what to do was to study how the mechanism worked.
It wasn't too hard to figure out, ...

If your steel is rack & barrel, then your changer is 1 up/1 down. There shouldn't be any reason why you can't have 4 KL's set up in Emmons style.
As far as who's going to do the work, can you do ...
