I didn't know what a pedal steel was in 1967.

Hi Rick, don't know about the 66-67 era, but I know a little later people like Paul Franklin snr, Duanne Marrs, and Zane beck were there. Under my Sho-Bud uni is a sticker saying "inspected by Duanne Marrs" and when I spoke to him on the phone once, he said that would have ment that he actually assembled my guitar

Was David Jackson there then?

Hi John, I think he was actually, because John Edmed and Ron Mawn the guys who ran the Sho-bud shop in Denmark street in London at that time, used to deal with him.

Rick, my boss, Jerry Brightman, said that Duanne was there then, and that Duanne would give you the straight story. Why don't you give him a call or an email with a pic of the bizarro changer?

Mickey, I think the Sho-Bud London shop deserves it's own thread:
