I have a Sho-Bud Pro II that I need to have the RKR to be modified to also work the inside neck. (I need it to work both necks).

Does anyone have the approprate parts for this mod? I can always try a local machinist who makes parts for Remington guitars, but wanted to ask Forum first.

Thanx,
Jim

Sorry 'bout that, Jim. What I got's not what you need.

Here is a picture to help explain. What I need is the mirror image of the mechanism on the right side of pic placed on the left side. The Pro II already has the holes pre-drilled so mounting the parts should be easy. Finding the correct fitting parts for the Pro II is the hard part.

Thanx,
Jim

Jim, I recently added this pull to the rear neck of my '71 D-10 ShoBud Professional. It is a Rack&Barrell. Michael Yahl sold me the parts. It works great. Rick Schmidt encouraged me to put the KL on to my C6th neck. I can't imagine playing C6th without it now. The KL works great. It was discussed here:

For your Pro-II, I believe that James Morehead has what you need. In theory, it should be a little easier to put in on a Pro-II, since it isn't R&B.

Thanks Tom for the Forum topic. This amplifies the linkup and the compund movement that has to be delt with.

I will contact James Morehead and see what he has.

Thanx,
Jim
