Can anyone help me date this S/N of a S-10 Emmons came from factory with 6 pedals no levers.
S/N # is 1109-S. It is a single 10 on a single frame. Split tail
Thanks
Larry

I emailed Emmons direct and had a response in half a day.
Why expose yourself to the wild guesses from the forum?

...because "polling the audience" always derives a better result than "calling a friend", and the forum offers no "50-50" option?...

I had one with a similar serial number, I believe it was very late 60's. (Now you can take my guess, and anybody else's, and then email Emmons....afterwards, you'll know whether or not to believe me next time I offer a guess!)

According to an Emmons # list I'm assembling, 1109-S should be a bolt-on from 1967. Am I correct in the neck/changer configuration?

OOOOPS for EDIT!. Just checked the list again. 1109-S should be a cut-tail, as Earl Foote noted below.

I have 1108-S and I have been told that it's somewhere between '67 & '69. There was someone on here awhile ago that had a serial number a few dozen higher than mine and he was positive that his was a '67. Mine is a cut tail though. Mine was a 6 pedal no knee lever configuration originaly but I had Bobbe Seymour's group convert it to a 3X4.

Thanks guys...
I was hopeing it was a 67 Push Pull because
I have a 67 D-10 (Rosewood) that looks just like this one.

Both have a decal logo on the front apron.

I am going to try to get this one converted to a 3-4 instead of just 6 on the floor. Then have two baby's just alike on the E9th neck. Larry

I have an S10, SN 1308 S. I bought it with 6 on the floor and 5 knees. From the looks of the hardware the knees must have been added much later. I guess judging from Tony's SN it must have been built around '74 also, eh?.
