John, I reckon it would be easier to learn to play Emmons set-up than tackle a job like that.
Rather you than me ..... best of luck. I must say, its a good looking guitar.

Oh John! Are you sure? It's going to take swapping all of the KLs over to convert that lot to match CBA pedals. And don't you think you play well enough with what you have? (I think so). Look at other "Day" players - John Hughey, Tommy White etc. In fact, here's a link to a video of Jim Vest's with Stu Basore, Tommy White and Jim all playing "Day". You may know it, but it'll be a revelation to some on the Forum. This is part 2, so check out the other parts (up to 11?).

Also here's Jimmy Crawford's explanation of the "cluster" - again you probably are familiar with this book John, but some won't be.

That looks very nice John but a word of warning. dont get your fingers trapped in that lot or you'll never be able to play the violin again. :lol:
