Can anyone point me in the right direction to find, hopefully its out there somewhere, an adapter to mount a simplex 5 star or century sound head to an eprad sword? I want to use something other than the eprad soundhead I have with this sword. Thanks.

Dave.

Can you post a photo of the point of attachment on the sword?

This may help us to offer suggestions.

Thannks, Tony. We have made a few of these over the years. It would seem that the Sword is much better than the worthless Eprad soundhead.

We don't make a casting but connect 2 angles together with the correct dimensions. A bit labor intensive (not cheap) but works just fine. Louis
