Todd,
Its not very hard to do it yourself. Open up both of them and just do one at a time. Use one for reference as you fix the other one. I have not had much luck with anybody except experienced steel players replacing pots. There are some instructions on the net if you need them. I think Jeff Newman had something up on his site a while back. For pots call up Goodrich or one of the steel shops. The stem can be to long on some standard ones.
You will wish your hands had a couple extra thin fingers that had reverse knuckle action while you work on the pedal.

Hey Bob,
I heard you on Shotgun Party's new album. Sounds great. Saw them last week here in Chicago. Wish I could get another lesson with you. Maybe next time I'm in Austin.
I was hoping for a shop. Have a session on Tuesday, and can't order the parts fast enough. |
