Daniel,
Tom Bradshaw may still be making these, or maybe Mike Perlowin could steer you in the right direction..Bill

| Super, that shows me what I needed to know, the total number of pulls is still limited by the number of holes but can be manipulated to alter a raise to a lower and vice versa but not add totally "extra" pulls. Neat trick kthough but won't allow ;me to what is necessarty to renovate a steel with too few total reise lower holes. Thanks |

Maybe there is an unused hole on an adjacent string. |

Mount it sideways (horizontally), If you have any empty space on the next string raise finger. |

I've used these on two or three steels I re-built, they work fine.

Have one on my Mullen (4 raises on string 6, 2 are compensators), kind of hard to wrap my head around how they work, but they DO work!

| Depending on the guitar and the setup there's another way to add a third raise. I added an E to F raise to string 4 that already had two raises. I pull the E to F# crank half way via another cross axle and crank with a pull rod as linkage. It has a nylon hex nut on that bell crank and has to be tuned underneath the guitar. The knee lever that pulls this linkage also pulls string 8 the normal way to raise both Es to F. I can provide pictures if necessary. |

I had 3 of them them on both my old classics. Two that converted a lower to a raise, one that converted a raise to a lower.
The work great, and they ever need any maintenance. Once they're installed, you just have to remember which strings they're on when you tune your pedals.
