I have looked, and looked, for info on this setup. I swear I read a reply by Chris Lucker, on a thread, that named the builder/installer of this device.
It has 5 plungers that affect strings 2 and 3 on one pedal (with little rollers on the top of the plunger) and strings 5-6-7 on the other pedal (with slots in the top of the plunger instead of rollers).
What tuning might have been on this?
Anyone know anything about this?

| That could be one of Shot Jackson's add-on pedal setups. I think he did quite a few of those in the early days. |

That sounds right, Bob. Thanks for the response.
Anyone agree with that?

It is definitely Shot's work.

| Back in the day I had a stringmaster quad with a Shot push up changer mechanism. Pushed two strings on one pedal. I though it was the best thing since sliced bread but it broke strings once per hour. Didn't look anything like these pictures. |

I think this idea started out with a coat hanger and an acceleration pedal from a car.  |

I have re-worded and added to my initial post. I'd like to know what tuning would be compatible with this described setup.
Thanks!
