EMMONS S-10 PUSH/PULL, RED LAQUER. Museum/Minty Condition !

Post by Bob Bartoli »

I've owner this for a few years now , but I'm never gona play'er, it needs to be in a museum or owned by a collector, she is around a '77/78 S-10 ,4 pedals and 2 knees, in ASTOUNDING,near MINTY CONDITION, I have NEVER cleaned or detailed this guitar , it has remained in this condition since new, there are no finish checks to the laquer, and only a few microscopic nicks, a mark or two on the fingerboard, there is one tiny ding on the pedal rack, I don't believe the gutar was ever played much at all.. No Volume pedal as pictured.

Bob, That is a beautiful guitar.Not a bad price either for one in that condition.If I didn't own an SD10 P/P I'd seriously consider this one.That'll make someone a nice Christmas present.What's the setup on it ? I know others will want to know also.

One note guys, this guitar has NEVER been refurbished, or refinished, it is 100% completly original and stock from the rubber feet to the fingerboard, like the day it left the factory!!! ....Thanks

Bob,I believe mines around a 1975 model,different inlay for sure.As beautiful as your guitar is in the pics I know it's even more beautiful in person.When these Emmons are sitting in front of you the black fades into the colors really nice,it's not as split looking as it is in pics.I couldn't help but notice what great shape the case is in,gorgeous.

Tyler,thanks for a great guitar.I really do love her.

Well I've posted my 1977 before, but here goes...

Like Bob's it
was also 4 pedal 2 lever ex factory.
It was Emmons set-up, with P4 lowering the 6th string half tone and 7th string a tone.

The serial no is 1511 - S.

However, mine is different in being a fatback, and having a wood neck.

I have also added 3 levers and changed the pickup to a TrueTone which made a great sounding guitar even better.
I also recently changed the tuners.

It was re-finished 18months ago.
