Sold, Thanks all! Donation incoming.

You do lessons at all, Johnny? I am desperate for some face to face instruction, I get too distracted trying to do digital learning.

Guitar still here, too!

3400$?

3500$! TTT, nice talking to you Ted!

Will do! Thank you!

I am amenable to shipping, but need secured funds. Not entirely sure how to do that digitally. I'll weigh this thing and see what shipping will be like.

Will upload more pics when I get home! Beautiful shape guitar, comes with a very nice road case. Would prefer cash, face to face. I am in North Florida, willing to drive to meet up to 3 hours one way. Thanks!

2k!

Next in line at 400$...

2200! I've got an Emmons and Mullen here giving this thing the dirty eye... And my girlfriend is giving me the dirty eye. HELP SAVE MY RELATIONSHIP!

Trip completed. Would like to sell this thing, shipping is on the table, on your dollar. Would love to meet in person, so you know what you're getting here.

Still available! Leaving early Thursday morning!

Up for sale, My SD-10. I'm sure somebody will recognize this guitar. French flag mica. Plays and functions fine, sounds good. Original George L's pickup is not in the guitar, has a single coil. Sounds great. I suspect it could use a good tuning, and new nylon nuts for the rods. Holds tune, and plays...

Beautiful pedal! Wish some of my junk would sell, I'd really like to have this.

TTT Price drop

800 OBO. Stuff keeps popping up that needs to come live with me! Please take this from me!

Beautiful little rig. I cleaned it up, made sure all the electronics were sound. Scrubbed the case, threw all the hardware into an ultrasonic cleaner and this is the result. It's a real peach. Sounds beautiful. Not sure of exact year, the sticker is missing from under the tuners. The bridge cover is...

Way to go, Jake! I still want to know if the new pickup makes a difference on the problem guitar, when you get it. Just watching paint dry, waiting for the mail! I'll film the install. There's SO few pedal steel videos online with people working on them. I understand protecting the trade, but for p...

Hoo boy, between this Emmons I got last night, and my steel is night and day. Same amp... there's the gloss. Even with COMPLETELY dead, rusty strings - the tone I want is here. Unfortunately, this is a C6 guitar - and I only know how to play E9. I'm gonna have to get her converted.

I'm excited for the pickup swap, for sure. I may have my hands on a 66 Emmons this weekend, so maybe I'll have something to compare with side by side.

So, to compare apples to oranges - My steel tone is more along the lines of a cheap mexican tele bridge pickup. Thin, not in the least "lively." I also play guitar, and you know how the neck pickup of a strat, or tele "activates" the hidden "gloss?" Gloss is probably th...

To answer most questions, I went ahead and put a new jack in the old girl to rule that out. Made no difference. I went ahead and made some brand new cables for myself out of Mogami wire, and neutrik connectors. That actually DID make some difference but mostly in clarity. I raised the pickup, lowere...

Yes, using George-L cables would definitely emphasize the highs. And while your "thin and lifeless" sound could just be too much mids, I'm more inclined to think you may have an open pickup. Have you ever ohmed the pickup? Negative. Will do soon as I get home. Never thought to so it. UPDA...

Ordered a pot from Tom Bradshaw (thanks Tom, if you're here!) I played some last night in the wee hours of the morning. I stared at the underside of this thing for an hour. Nothing evident as an issue. Changed picks, changed hand positions, eq. Added a low end boost via a modeling software and got i...

Could be your right hand technique or a couple other things. We could do a facetime call and maybe sort it out in a few minutes. That would be really cool, I have 12 hour days for the next four, but after that I'd like any sort of instruction. I do tend to shift my hand around quite a bit, hunting ...

I dont quite follow, I have been utilizing the pedal as it is labeled on the bottom. In, and two outs. It's a goodrich 120.
