Sold: GFI Student Model S-10

Post by Benjamin Davidson »

I’m the second owner that I am aware of, I’ll post the original sale thread below here. I expanded it from a 3 pedal, 2 knee levers to 4 knee levers. This was done with genuine GFI parts and instructions. The Student Model is a pull-release changer, which means lowers are on LKR (lower Es) and RKR (lower 2 and 9). Emmons pedal set up, however this model can be changed over to Day.

Pics posted below, more information available on the GFI website.

Additional Materials:
*U.S. Built (company unknown) detachable pad for the S-10.
*Standard Leg Set @ 26 3/8 inch
*Additional Non-Standard Leg Set (with pedal rods) @23 3/4 inch
*Dunlop 920 steel bar, Dunlop Picks, and a set of S.I.T. E9th Strings.

This has been a great steel to learn on over the summer, only being sold due to my upgrade to a Justice Pro-Lite.

Conditions:
GFI Steel: 9.5 of 10 - Cosmetic issue on the pedal bar bracket. Each pedal has been marked on the underside of the pedal “1A” “2B” “3C.” Fretboard is marked at frets 3, 5,7, 10, 13, and 15. Legs marred where the pad clamps on.

Case: 9.5 of 10 - Wear as you expect.

Detachable Pad: 9 of 10 - Wear as you expect on the hardware and brackets.

$1250.00 firm for the complete lot, local pickup preferred. I am willing to drive a reasonable distance to sell. All conditions of sale are “AS IS.” Contact me through the forum PM.

I will cover shipping and insurance to the lower 48 states. U.S. Postal Service Money Order, or Bank Issued Cashiers Checks only, I will only ship after the check clears my bank. No PayPal.

If the pad will fit my BMI S-10, would you be interested in selling it separately ?

Ronald, I would need the leg diameter, and the distance between the back legs to tell if it would fit your BMI.

However, at this time I'm looking to keep it all together and sold locally.

Darrin, it is still for sale.

I am holding out for a local sale, to avoid shipping the guitar.

Hi Benjamin, thanks for getting back to me so quick.
Yes, I did read in your post about local pick up.
I am looking at an identical brand new one from a music store up here in Nova Scotia, and they want $2300.00, plus 15% sales tax.
If there is someway we could come to an agreement for shipping, I would be greatly appreciative!
Yours is exactly what I am looking for, plus you have that perfect armrest.
My home number is 902-825-6844 and my cell is 902-840-3564 if you think you might change your mind on shipping it.
I also don't mind texting if that's what you would prefer.
Cheers and have a great day!

Local pickup still preferred. I am willing to drive a reasonable distance to sell, but no shipping at this time.
