Greetings,

I live in Great Falls, Montana and need to ship my Maverick to someone for repair as there is no one in the whole state who can help me... apparently. It’s got the crap metal and I snapped a link when trying to tune my pedals for the first time. I’d like to play this darn thing a bit more before upgrading and am willing to put around $500 in it before it becomes a lost cause for me. It’s a new purchase and came with the light beam volume pedal so with that I am in this for $500 already. Oh and while we are at it, if they can add some knee levers that’d be great but if not, starting with 3x1 is perfect for me.

Any suggestions for who could fix me up right would be appreciated!

I would take photos and exhaust the forum before sending it out. Whatever the issue, somebody has likely came across it already and found a way around it.

It's gonna be like 200 in shipping round trip. A knee will be at least $150, and then the cost of your repair. At best you'll end up with a $700 guitar that your are into for about a grand.

Joe,

If the 'snapped link' you are referring to is the pedal pull (where the pedal rod hooks into) then I have those in stock.
https://psgparts.com/Pull-Pedal-Hex-Pro-Series-125-225-1.htm
They're easily installed.
If you need other parts for it, I have them also.

You can send me pictures of what you need and we can figure it out.

There's tuning instructions for the Maverick in several threads here on the forum.

Michael

Thank you both for the advice! I’ll shoot you some pictures once I pick it up from the music store.
