Sho-Bud Super Pro

Post by Adam Przybyla »

As with most Sho-Buds, I have no idea how old this guy is, but it's obviously been well cared for throughout its life. The red is slightly faded, but you'd only know that if you looked under the necks or keyheads. It still looks VERY nice, either way. No lacquer checking or cracks, but there are the usual bar dings you would expect to find on any old lacquer guitar. It's currently set up with 8 and 6, but I have three extra knee levers I'll be including (I don't actually have all of the pull rods to go with those levers, but I'll include what I have). Also, the plastic shaft on the tone pot snapped off, but since I never use it, I've never bothered to fix it. I still have the knob, and it would be a super easy fix. It's really a great guitar; I'm just not in love with it like I am with my Mullen, and I could use the cash right now. Asking $2300, shipping included. Please contact me with any questions.

Bump up. More pics added. The only trade I might consider would be a nice, clean, original Fender 1000 (preferably blonde).

Okay, how about $2100, shipped? This will be for the guitar, as is, without the extra knee lever parts.

Yes, standard Emmons pedals. LKL raises the E's to F, LKV lowers the B's to Bb, LKR lowers the E's to Eb, RKL raises 1 to G and lowers 6 to F# (or G when split with B pedal) and RKR lowers 2 and 9 to C# (9 acts as a half stop feel for 2). Standard pedals on C neck, with LKR raising the A's to Bb, RKL lowering 3 to B and RKR raising 3 to C#.

Adam,
How hard is it to change the copedent on these guitars? I've changed on other guitars but not a Super Pro or any Sho-Bud for that matter.

Thanks Neil. I didn't think so but just wanted to make sure. That is a great looking Super Pro.

We can close this one up. I decided to keep the guitar.
