I have bought a Pro1, i think it must have been born just after the Rack and Rattle ones it has cross shafts and cranks but only two knee levers so, to finish the job i need 4 cranks and for of those brass adjusters.
I have made reverse lever but I am stuffed without the other bits, can you help me?
Best, John Davis |

Barry Coker here on the forum might be able to make those. Pretty sure Michal Yahl has those parts, but his site has been down for a bit |

No; these are the two-hole pullers with Brass rollers that John Davis is looking for:
They go on "round crossbar"; NOT HEX.
And yes check with that Johnie King dude; cause he buys and takes apart the back neck of D-10's and makes a SD-10 out of so many; including Sho-Bud; so he has a ton of parts he try's to sell; that nobody can really buy unless all the mechanics of their Double-10 just falls off for no reason...so he has got to have a ton of these pullers w/brass rollers.

Yes John; here's what's called "Barrel Tuners" you are asking for 4 of them also.
You're mighty welcome and good luck.

Yes actually; you only need the Barrel Tuners on the fingers that raise the note TWICE;...like C pedal E to F# and lever that raises that E to F; one rod/two barrel tuners. Same with C pedal and A pedal raising the B to C# twice...all the other rods that have just a single raise or single lower; can be really any puller that fits on crossbar you use a rod with nylon tuner at endplate and can hook on used puller...yeeehaaaa..

Well thats something I never thought of and the guitar will probably work better for it, easier than drilling
Out set screws to make those weird end bits
The only reservation it would have to be a tiny bit of nylon hex that would be sticking out of the end of the guitar |

Well that is exactly what Paul Franklin Sr. did to Lloyd Green's first LDG; as he got rid of all barrel tuners; but in order to keep the best sounding 6061 aluminum finger tops on the single/single Steel; he welded an extra raise hole on fingers 4 and 5 and all rods were then fixed to pullers with rollers with set screw and put 1/2" nylon hex tuners on his pulls...yeeehaaa.(you can put 3/16" hex nylon tuners and not have anything stick out; but the 1/2", you can see much better in sitting position to see which nylon you want to put tuner on...ha...
