I've never seen that colour before - it's pretty!

What does one look for to know its a push pull? What years? How many names did the push pull go by? Is this one?

The changer end would be the first place to look, but nothing that is "LL" or Lashley Legrande is push pull. Definitely all pull.

Note changer end on PP:

Note "Hook" thingy on rods:

My 2 cents, YMMV.

Jason

The open rectangles in the end-plate is the first clue. But DG is correct - LeGrandes are all-pull guitars.

There are others better-informed on this than I, but the change-over date is around 1982.

Damir, Is that A Wine color or Purple color or somewhere in between? Beautiful Guitar. J.R.

thanks for all the info guys, JR I think Emmons calls it a "plum" color I believe, it is a tricky one for sure, but I think guitar is gorgeous...I used to have a D10 Derby that was the same color, I believe...

I am the previous owner of this guitar and I can back up anything Damir says about this one. It's rock solid and gig-ready!!! TTT

The color is Wineberry.

From the man himself! Thanks, Jack. We've been scratching a hole in our head trying to figure that out.

that I would never guess, lol, thanks...

Wineberry is good, I would just consider it a shade of burgundy. Perfect color for a PSG to be played in church, Damir, if only I had the bucks.

I'm really gonna have to stop looking at your posts, the drool is affecting my keyboard. Hope it finds a good home.

It is a Wilsonart brand laminate and that is their description.

For the record, I have a more recent version of this same guitar; in what I believe to be the exact same color or very, very, close. I think at the time it was built Emmons called it a "burgundy". It is quite beautiful, whatever it is called. It always seems to photograph more "plum" when significant lighting such as flash are used; however, without the flash or bright lighting applied it appears to be more dark burgundy or "wineberry" as someone has mentioned. In fact, this color is so pretty when I went to look at it from the original owner I had my mind made up that I wanted a "black" one. Needless to say I came home with the burgundy LLGII overcome with its beauty! Damir always has the choicest of PSG items posted here; I would never hesitate to consider any one of the instruments he sells. Good luck to whomever chooses this great guitar; a good price too!!
