Hi everyone - first time posting here, excited to be a part of the forum!

I’ve been playing on a MSA sidekick to get started, but managed to pick up a Sho-Bud Pro II Custom for relatively cheap and upgrade my setup.

All the electronics work, but the pedals and levels are wonky and aren’t working correctly. I’ve been able to work on my MSA but this is a totally different beast.

I’m hoping that someone has some good leads for repairs/setups in the NYC Tristate area - I’m back and forth between Brooklyn and about an hour and a half upstate in Dutchess County.

Thanks in advance

Yeah I reached out to John, unfortunately he doesn’t work on the old Sho-Buds anymore.

Post a pic of the underside. If it's a model I'm willing to work on (not rack & barrel) and if you're interested in dropping it with me in Saugerties, Ulster County.....we can talk.

And happy to drive to Saugerties, that’s not far from me.

Cool. That's the same exact vintage (ca. 1975) as my S-12 Bud that I've done extensive work on. I've been doing a good amount of steel tech'ing up here for a surprising number of local players. I'd be happy to get a better idea of what you want & need. Let's can talk. PM or email me!
