The one I'm playing right now. '81 8+7
I thought I had it sold last year, but the deal turned sour. Looks like I'm stuck with it now

John
The short version is Nerve problems caused loss of feelling in the left foot. So after amost a year, I decided it was either quit playing or reverse what foot did what. It seems to be working.

steve...nice job...looks great...is that the mouse pee model?

Steve English · Post by **Steve English** » 30 Jul 2009 11:26 am

Thanks Chris.

It is, however I found no evidence of mouse tinkle.

I just put the rear neck all back together and rodded it back to factory specs and it plays like a dream. I also put an Emmons p/u on it (while waiting for E-66's) on it sounds incredible. I played it last Sat night (E9 only) with the BB p/u's and got many compliments from the band.

John Lazarus came over last night and gave it the once over. He also enlightened me on all things EMCI for which I am very grateful. One of John's comments was "I need a mouse to pee on mine!"

...and he's got one of the nicest sounding/playing guitars I've ever sat behind.

This is a killer guitar.

Hi Larry
If he makes any mistakes, we fill it with water

..........It's to stop sound spillage.
The Sho-Bud is my show guitar as it looks soooo cool under the lights. While it has the monkey metal parts, it still has that sound and I know Sho-Buds inside out and can finger any problems quickly if they happen on the road. I also use an Emmons SKH for local gigs and love that guitar too. It is totally dependable and never breaks strings.
The Super Pro has the big old Grovers on it and they tend to have a bit of back play on them.
Cheers
Barry
