Finally got time to try this again. Older Excel U12 8/5 with lock lever. Want to trade for good S10 at least 3/3. Long scale would be extra nice. Prefer not to ship. Will make donation to forum. See pics. Ask questions.

I'm charting the copedant and will post asap. This thing has lots of pulls!

First, I play in D, rather than E. Be prepared. Adjustments will have to be made as the tensions/pulls will change. Even beyond that, it is not well set up. This will be a project. As you see in the picture, some (very little) of the hardware is not original equipment. I don't desire or intend to do anything to the setup. I feel a "loaded" U12 swapped for a basic S10 deserves slack, and I will have to make adjustments on my end. There are 3 unused bellcranks and a rod for pedal 5. Below is the copedant as best as I can determine.

Trading makes it much harder. Might have better luck selling it outright then buying what you want.

I corrected the chart. (see above). Thanks Jack.

The weight on digital bathroom scales is 46.5 pounds.

I cannot find any numbers on this steel. I do not know the build date/age.
