Just finishing up. Gotta put the Emmons badge on, the pedal board sticker and the neck switch knob and will take it out for a test tomorrow night. Neat guitar, not cleaned up after rebuild yet. I guess I just wanted to see photo of it. There is some great history to this guitar.

| That's neat, Jerry. I've never seen one with 108s and monochrome fretboards. |

John, actually they are Pentads. I first heard this guitar 15 years ago and it sounded great. Note the telltale second knob (coil selector) instead of tone control bypass.

That should be a killer guitar Jerry and love those fret boards. My 85 Legrand has pentabs and they sounded great.

Wow, five selectable voices! I've never heard one, but I'm excited for you. I'll bet it's chock full of tone just waiting to bust out. |

Hi Tiny, it belonged to "Daddy Frank" Hardcastle. He bought it new in 81. He spent much of his career around the West coast. He is now retired back here in Arkansas not playing anymore. Most of your friends back here are doing pretty well but Tommy Wison had a stroke and is not able to play. That is a sad thing. I need to get his email address to you. He would love to hear from you.
