Can someone give me measurements for locating the Shobud and LDG decals on a LDG front apron? I refinished the cabinet and need to put the decals on and I want to make sure they are exactly where they are supposed to be. Measurements from the endplates to the decals and from the bottom of the apron to the bottom of the decals on an original finish guitar would be great.
Thanks,
Jerry |

Jerry, on my stock LDG the decal is 5/8 of an inch from the end plate. If the end plate is removed, the decal is 3 inches from the end of the cabinet.
Hope this helps. Leon |

Leon, how about the measurement from the changer end to the "S" in ShoBud? Can you help me with that also?
Thanks,

Wow that looks great. Your LDG is from the same vintage as mine. If you want to see my LDG, up close, it is on the red color site here on pedal steel. Thats a cool blue color you have now. I'm impressed.

 Jerry that looks like maybe 4 1/2 '' to me L.O.L. Mine is also 3 1/16 over . I am going to have to get in touch with you and adjust my '' Counterforce ''on my new LeGrande lll . I have the paperwork but i think it would be good to have you talk me through it also . Best regards . G.P. |
