Anyone have a picture of the underside of a super-pro-era (1979) Pro 1 that has a left vertical knee installed along with two standard left knee levers (LKL and LKR)? I'm looking at the underside of one and having trouble envisioning how it would fit. I assume it would need to have a connecting rod running to a cross shaft towards the middle of the guitar.

Thanks!

Actually I found a couple in old Forum for-sale posts. Looks like, in fact, the lever can be directly connected to the cross-shaft and tucked in to the keyhead side of the LKL cross-shaft.

Forumite Kenny Davis also shared the LKV that James Morehead designed for him. This one is more of what I expected, mounting on the shelf and running with a rod to the middle of the guitar.

This is the type knee bracket that Sho Bud used they fit directly on the hex shaft.
