1978 Zumsteel SD12 5+5 #43 made, Rogers Arkansas

[Brad Easley]

1978 Zumsteel SD125543, SD12, 5+5, #43 made. This is a rare early Zum and a beast of a machine. It has the original early Zumsteel double line logo. Sounds fantastic. It is configured as an Ext E9 with Day pedal setup, there are a few unused fingers with black lines marked on the ends. Copedent in photos, it's not a common copedent but could be reconfigured. Buddy Emmons & Jeff Newman signed it with an engraver. I don't have hard proof of that but I've been told it wasn't uncommon at the steel shows back in the day, so I have no reason to doubt these are real. This needs to belong to someone who can take care of it and put it to good use. Has a heavy duty road case.

Sold through Facebook group. I'm in Rogers, Arkansas (northwest corner), and will consider delivery or meet up within a day's drive (St Louis, Dallas, KCMO, Memphis maybe Nashville, Little Rock, Tulsa, OKC, Springfield, you get the idea). Ask if you have any questions.

It’s every thing you say, Brad. Sorry you must let it go. It is very, very special. Wish I was living on “Tulsa Time” .. I hope things go smooth as silk for you.

If it is not sold yet I would give you the 3k however I would like to see it first. I am in Bella Vista so no shipping and I am 20 minutes away. Please pm me back thru the forum

Who's gonna get it? If I wasn't 2,000 miles away I'd have grabbed it in a New York minute.
I can't remember seeing a nice Zum taking more than a day.
SD-12 with 5&5, whoa! Wishing I lived in Arkansas today.

I've had several takers that need it shipped. Several that are just far enough away that delivery would require an overnight stay, and I'm conflicted about whether I can pull off that kind of a trip at the moement. And 4 folks that said they'd buy it and pick it up, then back out due to personal circumstances, which I totally understand.

In other words, it's hot but it ain't sold yet.

I'm only selling for 2 reasons, I haven't been playing steel for awhile now, and I really want a certain bass. I'm mainly a bass player, and that's what I gig on 95% of the time. But I'm also selling lots of other gear to fund that bass, so there's a chance if the Zum doesn't sell it'll come back off the market within a week.

Sale pending through Facebook group

If sale falls through Lemeno through messenger. Wasn’t really interested in a double body but trying to get my friend into a universal and thought I’d ask some questions and maybe strike a deal. Would meet u to pick up if things would work out. Good luck though on current prospect. Marty Letz.

Sold through Facebook group. I think it found a great new home.
