If any way possible could someone give the measurements for their goodrich pedal mount. Width and measurement from bend to bend, etc.... I fabricate things and have all the materials to make them so I don't see spending 35 dollars for a new one. If you have an old one laying around for sale would be great also. |

If you fabricate things, I'd suggest something that expands with screws to grip the INSIDE of a pedal bar. That way, it doesn't mar the bar. I still have NO idea who made mine, but it's clever. I'll try to take some pics of it. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

That would be great if you send me a few pics.I plan on making it double adjustable for the grip of the pedal bar and the distance the pedal sets from the bar. |

The Goodrich and Hilton's are basically interchangeable. Goodrich's will adjust for the width of the pedal bar.
If you are good at "bending" and fabricating you should be able to measure and come up with what you need for your application. Fairly simple measurements.
Line the inside of whatever you come up with, with a non marring lining. I have a piece of scrap leather glued to the inside of a Hilton. I lined the inside of a Goodrich with several pieces of the soft part of Velcro. |

Here's a couple pics of the thing I bought from Tony Prior, who doesn't recall who made it. It's NOT from Dale Hansen (I asked, and it seems to be steel and Dale likes aluminum). It seems to be hard rubber or black Delrin with a gray rubber gripping strip.

I have lots of sticky back felt like what is on the goodrich stuff.I can fabricate just about anything weld,bend,cut etc.I'll post my prototypes and final products here. May even build me a aluminum pac seat... |

The stock "soft stuff" on a Goodrich bracket doesn't stay soft. Mine came with this stuff that seemed like Tolex (Came new that way from Ollie). Ended up scratching the hell outta my Zum. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

As you screw the screws, the blocks separate under pressure, so it clamps to the INSIDE of the pedal bar. I'll take some pics of it going on when I set up at the jam tonight _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

Yes, don't use the stuff Goodrich or even Hilton uses to line their clamps. I've replaced both, the Goodrich, after it scratched my pedal bar. |

Here's another couple pics, taken as I set up yesterday
And another
I REALLY suspect 12ga mild steel (or maybe it's even 10) is overbuilt for the bracket. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

Ok I see now, mine has the solid wood pedal bar. Does the ends have some kind grip tape? |

With the solid bar, I think you'd need the over the top thing.
But mine does indeed have a rubber tread pad at the ends. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)
