I don't know who had them and I cant find them again. These can be put on without removing the crossrods. They are open on one side and had a angled setscrew to tighten them. Adding a pull to a Super Pro is like major surgery. Any help would be most appreciated. Best Regards. |

I've not seen them. I also have my doubts about the advisability and durability of a quick-install crank on a hex shaft. unless someone has a bigger stock of clever than I do _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

Mullen bellcranks work perfectly on the Super Pro. They are quick fit sliding directly over the hex shaft with an allen screw to secure. |

That is great to hear. I have hours upon hours in unhooking and re-hooking up parts just to try a change that I often do not end up keeping. I love trying new changes but the Shobud design does not make this quick or easy. This will make things a whole lot less stressful. lol. I will try the Mullen parts. Thank you all for your help. It is very much appreciated. |

I don't have much of a problem with my Super Pro changer.. I merely take off one bracket on the cross shaft after taking the pull rods off, and loosen the Allen screws to move the bellcrank.. Its not all that difficult at all.. Not as user friendly as some designs, but I've seen worse... bob _________________ I'm over the hill and hittin'rocks on the way down!
