Did a wrench fall on your head, Perley? Both D-10 with rope style inlays, Sho Bud a Marrs build. Preferred mellower tone sig’s from bolt on, fat back, woods all over Emmons. I’d let go of the mid-50’s Ford instead! What a hard to duplicate pair you have. Was Mike Cass a custodian? Thx
Great photo display, BTW. 😎

Looks like this horn probably left the Emmons factory with 10 pedals. Cool and unique horn for sure.

Good luck with the sale Perley.

The "Stereo" decals probably came from Bobbe Seymour. He put them on everything...

This guitar - as a beautiful and great instrument as it is - is not to be considered a bolt-on. It´s a wood neck - that´s it. A bolt-on is a guitar with a bolt-on changer in combination with an aluminium neck.

What I mean is that when talking about an "Emmons Bolt-On" pp (not that anybody did that here...) with that special sound often mentioned, that means a guitar with bolt-on changers and alu necks. All Emmons wood neck pp´s came with bolt-on changers, and should not be mixed up with the term "Emmons Bolt-On" which is a different guitar. Didn´t mean to offend you, Tommy. Just meant that there´s nothing special with bolt-on changers on a wood neck - that´s just the way they were made.
