Hi Bob,

Keith Hilton makes them. They will fit up to either his pedal or the Telonics. I've been using one on my Telonics pedal for years. They are a fixed-pin design but will even work just fine if your Emmons guitar is an early one that's designed for a drop-pin pedal.

You can get one from Keith, of course but I believe Fred Justice and Gary Sill also carry them.

I second what Lynn said. What tapers do you guys like with your Push Pull? I really enjoy taper 7. The Emmons taper with the extra heat at the end.

Lynn,

I got it but don't see how it can possibly work. The back end of the pedal is off the floor because of the base of the TP pedal still contacting the floor first? My front legs only extend the length of the rubber end cap so there isn't enough clearance. Confused Smile

Bob,

I don't quite understand what you've described. Any chance you could post a photo or two of the pedal and the Hilton adapter attached to your steel?
