Will, I agree with you 100%. Fred has come up with a winner. And a terrific value too.

Nice! I myself am one step closer to a new Pro lite hopefully soon! I can not wait!

We were rear ended at 45 mph while sitting still in our 1968 Pontiac Firebird 3 years ago this past week. The car was totaled and my wife and I were both left with massive back injuries. She has had two back surgeries and I have 5 ruptured discs.

Needless to say I need a light weight PSG as my good ole D10 MSA Classic is NOT leaving my home anytime soon! Once the "T"'s are crosses and the paperwork is signed, a new Justice Pro Lite is the only thing I've asked for out of this whole mess...

[Fred Justice]

Hi Joe, sounds like a plan Sir.
I have a black Pro Lite in St. Petersburg Fl.
How far is that from you Joe?

[Joe Gall]

Only an hour and a half away from me.

I'm going to call you at some point as I do have a couple of questions. I will need a 2" lift and also curious about the placement of the left knee levers (how far to the left are they)? The reason I ask about the LK levers is that it seems to me that the LK levers on most guitars are always a bit too far to the right or towards the middle if that makes any sense and I have always wondered if that is just something that is a problem with me, or do other people find that to be a problem as well?

The best way I can try to explain this "problem" is like this. For me, when I have my left knee between the LK levers on the two PSG that I have recently owned, when I then put my left foot on the A-B pedals, my leg is then at a 45 degree angle (maybe not exactly but a VERY serious angle) making it VERY uncomfortable to say the least! In addition, this puts my legs quite close together making things quite uncomfortable if you know what I mean. Keep in mind I am 6'-2" and go 285 lbs. so maybe I am just too big to be playing this instrument in the first place. LOL

Is there a solution? Can the LK levers be moved further to the left? Maybe all of this sounds crazy I don't know. Especially for me personally because I am usually a "far right kinda guy" LOL. All kidding aside this is a concern that I have and was curious if there is a "fix" for this scenario...

[Lane Gray]

I see in your sig that you play MSA.
These place the knees much farther to the right than most, and is not easily corrected, as the location of LKR is fixed by the lever and reverser mounting on the rear apron. The easiest way to correct the leg angle is to move the pedals over, using holes 3, 4, & 5 for the A, B and C pedals, leaving holes 1 and 2 empty. That doesn't help your squeeze play, for which I'd suggest an underwear change

[Fred Justice]

Joe as the time grows near, I'll PM you privately the info you need to go and sit under that Pro Lite.

I don't think you'll have that knee lever problem at all with the Pro Lite Joe.

[Joe Gall]

Perfect. The time should be close...

[Jeff Metz Jr.]

Sry for the high jacking but three too far right lever problem was brought up and I too need info on moving my Sierras levers a little more central to the guitar. Any info?

[Bill Moore (RIP)]

Joe, you should try to adjust your body position behind the guitar. Looking at your picture; I'd suggest that you are sitting too far to the left. Try and move so that your body is centered at the 15th fret of the guitar. I know this doesn't sound logical, but that places you in a better position to access the pedals/levers. Your left leg should be at an angle toward the ABC pedals. The right leg more at a 90 degree angle to the guitar. Since you are relatively tall, this position is even more necessary. I am about 6' tall and this works well for me. Try it.

I believe I have tried just about everything at this point. However, I will make a point to try exactly what you are suggesting. The problem seems that my left leg ends up on a wicked angle as the LK levers are VERY far inward and the ABC pedals are VERY far outward. It literally kills my left knee. However, I did make and adjustment to the LKL by heating and bending it outward and then adding a paddle (so to speak to the LKR lever). This made a HUGE difference).

I too apologize for the hijack. I just don't want my new Justice to be an issue so I am clarifying before hand. I think I'll start a new thread...
