Sierra Bell Cranks & Pull Rods

[Mr Bassman]

Hi all,

has anyone got any spare bell cranks & pull rods suitable for a Crown Sierra 5/16" round cross shaft?

Maybe someone has converted a U12 to E9 extended and has some to sell.

Cheers

Keith

PM sent - your 250mm pull-rod is waiting for you . Hope some cranks turn up, that'll be easier than making one.

[Mr Bassman]

Thanks Tony.
Shame about lockdown, would've loved to drive out your way.

You will I'll keepyou posted when our irregular Sunday lunchtime sessions start up again.

[Mr Bassman]

Well that's something to look forward to. Would there be space for an upright bass?
It'll be a while before I'm competent on the pedal steel.

Sure it's big enough for a bass - but the real objective is to meet, play, learn or teach and, most of all, encourage. So the best option is to bring your steel guitar
Here's a picture of me in just one corner of the room we use - and there's a couple of Sierras there to look at.

The photo is from a 'North of England Steel Guitar Festival' of a couple of years back.

Ah, for some reason I thought you were referring to a folk session.
Great, keep me posted.
