(Terry - I already PM'd you about this, but for everyone else:)

RKL raises the 1st string a whole step. RKR lowers string 2 a 1/2 step. There's a feel 1/2 stop mechanism on there, though, so you could easily set it up to go a whole step with a click at the 1/2 step. RKL has an unused bellcrank, and the rod and hardware is included in the case. I never needed it, so haven't hooked it up.

I'm starting to think about ebay for this one... If you've been looking, make an offer! I'd much rather sell it here.

This is the identical twin to my main guitar, and if I had unlimited funds I would have snatched this immediately!

Someone needs to grab Justin's deal here.

C'mon, it's a black Emmons.

Thank you for the sales pitch, Mike.

Larry, please email me some pix and info about the BMI. I'm especially looking to trade for a newer D10 or single neck set up for C6.

I can't believe this guitar is still here. Best price I've ever seen on a Legrande. Somebody is missing out in a big way. The Legrandes are tone machines with superb pedal action. And they look great from above...check out my avatar! :)

Standard Emmons setup, with the Es on the left KLs.

The 14-hole bellcranks that folks like.

Overall, it's cosmetically sharp. There's some scuffing here that you can see if the light is right, though.

Image
Dings on the endplate. I haven't tried to polish them out. Overall the metal parts are good and shiny.

Image
The paint inside the keyhead seems to be coming off. The same thing is happening inside the pedal bar. I wonder if this was non-factory paint, not meant to stick to aluminum? Not something you notice without closely looking over the guitar.

Ok, it is now SOLD! You can close this up, B0b.

Thank you to everyone who looked, posted, and made offers. Johnny, I'm sorry another deal went through just ahead of you.
