I believe Garth Brooks steel guitarist is going to need this. He is playing it's sister on CBS currently in the rain at Notre Dame Live and it's covered in water. BEAUTIFUL GUITAR HERE, and if I did not already have this in Teal, I would pull the trigger.

In the rain?!?! Oh, wow. I'd be pissed! Thanks, Jeffrey. It, as you well know, is a really nice one.

I sure would love to have this guitar. I'm having trouble selling some things. I sold an Emmons last year and now I've been kind of missing it. It's just hard to beat the sound of an Emmons.

I would love for you to play it. And, I'm with you - I've played a few other guitars and Emmons just "works" for me. The only thing that came close was the Zum Hybrid that I sold to Rick Price. Phenomenal guitar! But, I didn't need it and he wanted it. And, he's a great player. They deserved each other. I kept my p/p, though - I'll never sell that guitar.

Just swapped a Mullen Royal Precision I had for sale for this black Lashley LeGrande II. Looks alot like David's guitar, except mine has the BL-710 pick-ups.

Nick, you saved my life, I was almost ready to pull the trigger and get these steel. Very nice guitar and when you ever do decide you want to sell it, remember me first.
Congratulations my friend......

I got one with red aprons and white top Emmons LL2. I think the the LL2's and LL3'S were really a good trend, probably the most stable as far as staying in tune, easily switched around along with adding hardware. Sound out of everyone I've heard is awesome. Good luck man, I can't believe noone snapped this up yet. One day, an all original Emmons (anything) prices will go up as the become less available.

I’m sure this steel is much nicer than when she was sold brand new.

Johnie - I've only had one new one and, yes, this one is nicer thanks to Billy K. I thought it was sold, but the deal fell through. Just as well - I might just keep it.
