Don't bother, Nick. Sending Chuck messages will do you no good.

Thanks so much Dana; just thought you might like to know: our guitars were both made in Oct. of 1973, in Nashville TN. of course!

Dana, it would be cool for you to post some photos of your guitar. From the serial number info that I have it looks like with the serial number you gave of 4312, your guitar is a 1973 year model not a 1974 as you are showing on your equipment info list?

It looks like it was made during the same 1-2 week period of Oct. 1973 that mine was made. Also, it's interesting that you state the model is a 6140 instead of a 6139 like mine?

Maybe an expert here can chime in with some more info for both of us!

Best Regards: Chuck

Buell; I am curious as to why you would post this rude comment directed toward another member on the forum?

I already answered your previous personal message, perhaps it went to your spam folder on your email? If you can't find it, let me know and I will send you another private reply.

Regards: Chuck

Hello Buell; I sent a personal message to you twice? Not sure why you did not get it?

Anyway the answers to your questions are:

1) The Sho-Bud volume pedal that will come with the steel is in great working order: i.e. no noise from the pot during operation etc..

2) the shipping weight of the guitar and case is: 52lbs. The guitar itself weighs just 38lbs.

Hope this helps, Regards: Chuck
