H iFolks does anyone know an easy way of restringing a 1970's a Sho-Bud volume pedal and what is the best alternative to using cat-gut?
cheers

It's fairly straight forward and you can use mason's twine available at most hardware stores. |

I have, I did not find restringing mine to be an enjoyable process. |

Nothing hard about re-stringing a Sho~Bud volume pedal. I have had one since 1977. I use a heavy fly rod string, and only had to re-string when I changed volume pot. _________________ Sho-Bud LDG, Martin D28, Ome trilogy 5 string banjo, Ibanez 4-string bass, dobro, fiddle, and a tubal cain.

I second Ronnie's suggestion on the fly rod string. |

I had to re-string my Goodrich volume pedal...I found a couple of very good videos on youtube. They showed step by step about how to do it. Worth a try. _________________ Emmons and Rittenberry Steel guitars plus assorted 6 string guitars |
