Hello again!
Some of you may know that I am technically challenged when it comes to posting pictures. So I can't post one, but I just want to know what era mine is from.
It's got the big "S" on the footboard, leather strap, and the posts are like a light blueish-green. On the right side of the pedal where the "S" hook and spring attaches is a threaded piece that is adjustable into one of three positions. The pedal clamps on with a 1/4" threaded screw underneath the pedal post plate onto which a small spring is attached underneath the hoop clamp, with a round nut on top of the hoop clamp (the hoop clamp itself is not attched to the pedal plate; it's held in place by the screw, spring and round nut on top of it). The heel plate is black and fairly thick, with three screws in the shape of a triangle underneath it. The heel plate connects to the vertical posts witha moveable (but not detachable) support bar. Hopefully, I've given you guys enough detail to tell me the era. I want to say 70's, but I am not quite sure.
It came with a cheap old kit I recently bought. The pedal is in great shape. I replaced the spring and beater, and it works and feels great. The only damage is the threaded spring tension adjustment piece (to which the bottom of the spring attaches) is a little bit bent, but it still works fine. The only other modification I did was I replaced the screw that threads up from the plate and through the hoop clamp, because it was too long; when I would push down on the pedal, the bottom of the footboard would hit the top of the screw. A shorter screw makes all the difference.
Thanks.
