I'm going to pick this up from Bobbie Seymour's shop on the 10th. Can't wait to have my own slice of the push-pull magic! I'm so excited!!!

Count me in. I have an S10 P/P from the mid 60's.
But I prefer my Sierra U14....

Latest Tally:

D-10's 142 (added to count some I was emailed about)

S-10's 42

S-12's 9

That's 193 Push pulls total so far. I believe there's lots more. Keep em coming. Email me if you don't want listed on forum and will include in count.

'73 Fatback

Mike Wilson · Post by **Mike Wilson** » 30 May 2013 5:31 am

This is the crew. Front: 82 Push/Pull, Back row left: 77 Laquer body, Middle: Mullen G2 was Herby Wallaces personal guitar, now has 9 X 9, Right: 74 Fatback Wood grain mica. This guitar was Weldon Myricks guitar then Mike "Cookie" Jones got it from Weldon when he was playing for (I think Barbara Mandrell), hope I'm right. Mike's guitar got stolen and he needed one quick, so Weldon parted with this one. I think that's how the story went. 2 of these Emmons Push/ Pulls are for sale and I don't care which 2, but I'm am going to keep one of them for myself. I have too many steels, if there is such a thing.

3 for me. a 1966 D10 bolt on, A 1974 D10 fatback and a mid 70's S10.

So far the tally on the P/P's also counting the email I have recieved is:
174 D-10's,
51 S-10's
12 S-12's.
I believe there are probably at least that many more out there. There are some beautiful guitars of all type's out there with inlay, laquer finishes, strips, and everything else but think the D-10 P/P's will stand up to any in my book for looks. They look so rugged and solid which I think makes them stand out.
Keep em coming guys and gals

Mine is nowhere near as pretty as the ones in everybody's pictures, but it is a 1969 black mica D-10, cuttail, 8X5. My search for the perfect steel tone ended when I bought it in 2007.

Would love to have a rosewood bolt-on someday, but not until there's more money in the kids' 529s...

Duane Reese · Post by **Duane Reese** » 1 Jun 2013 5:01 pm

D-10 black cut-tail, possibly a 1978.

1966 S-10 bolt-on

Sven Kontio · Post by **Sven Kontio** » 24 Jun 2013 1:34 pm

Henry,
I tried to count the SD´s to tell them from the S´s. I come up with 1 (one) SD-12, 5 factory SD-10s and 2 converted SD-10s.
Do you have a more correct number? It seems like the loafers are well outnumbered by the Ss and Ds...

Are there really that few around?

Sven

Henry Matthews · Post by **Henry Matthews** » 24 Jun 2013 2:13 pm

Sven, I just counted s10's and didn't specify whether they were on a single or double frame. I have also been emailed some to add to count and will try to get a more accurate count from there. Thanks

Post by **Joey Ace** » 25 Jun 2013 4:21 am

Note to Henry: Don't count this one, it's already posted on Page 4, at Niagara Falls.

I just want to show some better pix of the guitar.

Blue Mica Fat Back, looks like a twin of Karen's.
I'm even including the angle that she took of hers.

Jerry Jones has it's D10 brother, on page 1.

Beautiful Guitars!

This thread sorta died out about middle last year so going to catch it up with a tally. Best I can tell, 187 D-10's, 51 S-10's and 14 S-12's. I'm sure there are more out there but that's a lot of push pulls that just belong to forum members. I've added this one to my herd also. Thanks guys
