We have made standard issue, the regular shobud knee levers adjustable--you can go wider or more narrow with an allen wrench on an 8-32 set screw. See below:

| Man James! I wish I'd had these when I still had my '72 D-10. Those levers just kinda flopped around. Meant lotsa knee movement. |

| James I recieved the bracket you made for me today and it is perfect. You have made a replacement part better than the original and at a very reasonable price. Thanks for all your help and advise. |

Hey James,
I just wanted to let you (and our forum friends) know how pleased I am with the parts you sent.
I did a complete pull train replacement on Rich Hinman's (Roseanne Cash Band) old Pro 1. I used your replacement parts which are just beautiful, well designed, bullet proof, and flawlessly made. I am really very impressed with the superior quality of the parts, and I wish to personally thank you and your wife for prompt delivery in spite of the issues and difficulties surrounding your accident.
The price for such high quality parts is a bargain in my opinion.
The guitar now plays like a dream, with balanced easy pulls, great feel, and superior tune-abilty, with the vintage sound and vibe that Rich likes.
I highly recommend your excellent parts and service to anyone.
Thanks James, and very best wishes for continued improvement regarding your injuries.
Most sincerely,
John Widgren

James,
How are the changer fingers coming along? I ordered and paid them in July and I am getting a bit fed up waiting!

No gripe James and I would add that you have always been very helpful answering posts I have made regarding my Sho Bud, its just impatience. I look forward to getting the new changer fingers as all your parts look great in this thread and I’m sure they will give my steel a new lease of life.
However I have emailed you a few times about these, you quoted 4-6 weeks after I ordered them and its been 7 months. I thinks it’s now relevant to ask on the open forum. |

Mr. Butcher, Compliment me as you kick my feet out from under me. Thanx.
Well, I see you are not interested in emailing me directly to handle your concerns. I see you are not interested in my setbacks, ect, so I'll just refund your money. I'm sure you will find many more who will service your needs much better than I.
