Thank you

I wonder how the new steel will match up to the original in preference and price? I ask because I have a near mint 1987 ST10 that I am going to be putting up for sale. I bought it in 2010 and have tried to learn to play but I am a left handed no talent 80 year old so I may as well sell it. here is ...

I realize I asked a stupid question and agree with Bobby Boggs reply.

Telecasters from the 1950's of course are more valuable than new ones. That'swhy Fender makes the vintage models that are beat up to look like early model tele's.

Larry La Belle

I was asking if later models of Emmons push pulls were more in demand than earlier models. In other words are models built in 1980's more valuable than 1960 models? It looks like most Emmons for sale on the forum are the earlier models (1960's, 1970's).

Are the newer 1980s model Emmons push pull more in demand than the earlier models with those pedals that look like paddle boards?

What year is this steel? The pedals look black. are they the narrow Le Grande style?

I have lesson scheduled later this month with a pretty good teacher so I will see how I do and then decide if I should keep trying to learn or sell it Thanks for the information

Hi;
How can you tell that the guitar is a push-pull by looking at the changer end? Also how can I tell what pickups are on it?

Thanks,

Does anyone know if Buddy recorded his Christmas CD on a Push Pull Emmons? It sure sounds like a push-pull.
Thanks

Larry La Belle

Thank you Paul.

We need pictures. The steel is obviously the most valuable item. You might find a buyer that wants the whole package, but you will probably do better if you sell individual items. I have not heard of Emmons making push-pull guitars in 1989. It is possible, but seems more likely that your guitar is ...

I have a near mint condition 1989 SD10 Emmons push pull E9th on a double neck body in the rosewood Mica finish. I bought it from Billy Knowles in the fall of 2010 and never did learn to play it.I had a total knee replacement in July 2011 and just never started back up learning to play. I also have ...

That was some show! Would have been great to be there. I was at the ISGA in 1982 when Buddy was there with the Nashville Super Pickers! Scotty was sitting on the floor in front of Buddy when they played Faded Love! I thought Scotty was going to have kid! Buddy made that steel sound like a fiddle! I ...

Thank you Paul for the answer. I downloaded a copy from youtube but I am going to buy the DVD if I can find a copy.
I am going to Nashville in few days for a Vacation so maybe I can find a copy there.

Thanks again

Larry La Belle

does anyone know if Buddy was playing a push pull on the Bell Cove DVD?
My old ears cannot tell.

Larry La Belle

That's what I thought but just wanted to check. Thanks Bill

Larry La Belle

David, Sadly we have not video taped the ISGC since 1998. What you saw in our sound booth were either still camera's or our "live" mics. Sorry, Bill Ferguson Are there actual video available for purchase I was there in 1998 and Buddy Emmons did a Friday night show with Darrel Mcall. I hav...
