I am interested in converting my Kline U-12 from E9/B6 to Extended E9. I would like a good mechanic who is familar with the single tree mechanics of a Kline, if at all possible. Joe Kline, unfortunately, is no longer building guitars and is supposed to be living in Florida somewhere, so sending it back to the factory is not an option. I will be in Nashville on Aug. 30 & 31, returning home on Sept. 1. Anyone in that area that could turn it around while I am there? I am making several extra pull rods which will be needed.

Hey Bob, I knew that Brian was the guru on Emmons, but I don't know if he will want to touch this or not. I might call him and see if I could take it up and let him see what is involved. Also, I have realized that I will need some spare "single tree" connectors, so until I can come up with these, there is no way to proceed. When I loose the B6 tuning, I may be able to steal one or two from it. I haven't worked that out yet. Otherwise, I will have to see if a forum member knows how to get in touch with Joe Kline to see if he or someone he knows might have some spare single tree connectors laying around. |

You may want to check with Dave Decker, who is a regular on this forum. He worked for/with Joe Kline for lotsa years, and plays Kline today. He is in Canton Oh. I have no idea if he's be interested, but he certainly knows the guitars. |
