Just a word or on John Coops finger assy for shobuds.This summer I bought a not so super super pro and Imean to tell you this thing was unplayable on the top neck.If you pushed down A pedal a different string would go so far out of tune it was nuts. It didnt really matter what was used knee levers included.If I had a shot gun I would have taken out to the back yard and shot it like a bad lawn mower. I saw johns finger set up here on the forum so I got in touch with him.He rebuilt my changer and made me a guide plate.It did'nt have one on it.This is not even the same guitar The tone is better the sustain is better the pedals and knee levers work easher and smoother. and it tunes up and stays there
This is what you get when better materials are used by a Great MACHINIST.I would take this guitar up again any of them out there.As a bonus John is a great guy to talk to.So much for body flex.
I welcome any questions. Norris Ashment

John's parts are the best! Norris, I see that you do to lawnmowers what I do to string trimmers! Only I use a Ruger 44! Very satisfying! Not as satisfying as playing a Coop/Davis Shobud though!
