I have an early sixties Madison permanent that had the pulls set up underneath for a RKR knee lever raising the F#s, but there was no lever and there wasn't any room underneath to add a shaft to add one. There were a few extra holes on the left end plate, so I had figured that's somehow the way that a lever had been put on years back.

It wasn't until a couple of days ago when I was looking at an old crossover on Reverb, that I saw a lever that was obviously the way my guitar had been set up in the past.



I built a similar lever and installed it on my guitar, and it works great! Nice to have that change.

So my question is--is this a pretty common way that knee levers were added in the earlier days that I've just missed?
