I need to find someone to work on my 78 emmons push pull. I need to install a vertical knee lever so I need some with access to parts. Is there someone maybe in East Va area. I tried the dealer in Kenansville but he is too tied up.

Not exactly EVA but Billy Cooper's shop in Orange, VA is worth the trip and certainly knows P/P guitars.

Billy Knowles is in Kenansville, I believe. His reputation is excellent.

Ben since you're so close to him. Probably worth the wait unless you just got to have a vertical knee lever yesterday.

If you don't mind shipping? Wouldn't have to send the legs, rods, or pedal board. Jerry Roller does great work for way too cheap. Idea This should be a link to contact him.

If you end up getting the parts You can more than likely install it yourself , and save a bunch of money. I just installed a Vertical on my Push pull last month. It was a breeze and worked flawlessly.
Jerry ROller is the way to go for parts and service!

No Chris it sold. I ended up selling the guitar to spencer cullum jr. Who didn't want the vertical lever. I removed it before the sale.
