Excellent Rains SD10 3x4 Standard Emmons CLOSE

Post by Alex Johnson »

This listing is for a Rains SD10 3x4 Natural Mica Pedal Steel Guitar, Original Hard Shell Case, Leg/Rod Bag and fine tuning key.

This is an excellent example of a world class steel guitar. It was built by Gary Carpenter around 2010 and is still in wonderful condition. The guitar is truly a top of the line instrument with wonderful tone and tons of bandstand appeal.

It is set up Standard Emmons E9 3x4 (Es on the left). Mechanically the guitar is 100%, the pulls are smooth and accurate and the tune is spot on.

Cosmetically the guitar is in great condition but it is not 'mint'. It has a couple small scratches but nothing major to mention. I would call the condition "Excellent".

Thanks for looking!

Warren, You better jump on this one. They are a GREAT GUITAR. I love mine, (2008). I have put a single coil pickup in it which is just my own personal preference. Good price on this one also. J.R.

This is a Beautiful Guitar folks. Does not show signs of being molested. Looks like new in fact. These Rains play and sound great and stay in tune till the cows come home. If I was not retired I would grab it just to look at. Retirement does not pay very much,ha. Best of Luck Alex, J.R. Rose

Beautiful Guitar

I saw this guitar in person today at Alex's shop, it is nicer than it looks in the photos. It looks brand new and the color is unique and very cool. I know Gary Carpenter and his work, and this is a deal.
