The title says it all. I have a broken bell crank in my guitar, and It's located in such a place that I have to remove a whole bunch of rods to get to it.

MSAs are incredibly durable and reliable, but when something does go wrong, well, all I can say is #^%#^&$&^&()@#.

God bless whoever invented square cross rods and easily removable bell cranks.

Yes, I know exactally what you mean. I just finished up tonight...I pulled all the rods on my MSA U12...all the shafts and bell cranks, and replaced the linkage that goes between the pedal rod and the stop on the shaft. That MSA has spent more time on it's back with it's legs in the air than most hookers. But it was worth it as I learned alot...but now know enough to be considered dangerous.

Joy!!!
