Sho-Bud Pro II Custom 1975 Blond Birdseye - New Price!

Post by Joseph Carlson »

Picked up this steel maybe 8 or so years ago. The story I was told was that someone bought it new in the 70s and they never learned to play so it sat in the case for years and years.

You can see in the pictures there is some crazing beneath the finish. Par for the course for an instrument that is almost 50 years old. Top finish is in good condition. Doesn't appear to have had modifications. Setup is standard Emmons 8x4. There is also a little bit of finish flaking on the front.

I will also throw in a an Elite Seat, a bunch of learning materials (including some Jeff Newman materials), two bars (one is a BJS), a bunch of strings, and two Sho-Bud volume pedals.

Case is a light weight split case.

Asking $3000 for the bundle. Will not ship, must be picked up locally here in Grass Valley, CA.
