Oh goody, looks like I can be first to tell you it is not impossible to fix! I can't think of any problem that the pedal could have that would be impossible to fix. It is also a rather valuable piece of equipment.

I recently did a review of the old Paul Bigsby pedals for "Center Stream Publishing". Center Stream is a big publishing company out in California. They gave me one to examine, and I wrote a 11 page article that will be in a new book Center Stream is doing on Paul Bigsby and the devices he made for the music industry. Besides mechanical issues, I did several engineer drawings of the electronics. There were more than one way the two pots hook up. What do you want to know? Jerry, good to hear from you! Your friend Jerry Newberry was at the Branson Show. I was hoping you could make it.

Kieth, on the book when and how much? I'll give up my bigsbys, when they pry my cold dead fingers off of their flat uncomfortable handles!

The publisher's name is Ron Middleton Centerstream Publications P.O. Box 17878 Anaheim, CA 92807 You will have to contact them and find out the cost, and when the book will be out. They publish lots of books every year, and I don't know when the Paul Bigsby book will be coming out. I would guess later this year.
