My first time selling here, so apologies to b0b if I miss something. Looking forward to making a donation.

$4,500
Serial number 2180 D

I believe a ‘75 Emmons P/P 8 & 5 black. OHSC. Normal condition for its age. I really don’t want to deal with shipping. Willing to meet within a reasonable distance from Knoxville, TN or Charleston, WV.

Please email ssnedegar@aol.com. Cell phone has Robo Killer, so not all calls get through.

What’s going on with the decal? Is that factory?

Yes, that's a good question.

Hi Andy and Mike,

I purchased the guitar about three years ago. That was the decal that was on it. I have made no modifications.

Respectfully,

Steve

The badge was simply swapped for a sticker. The holes are there if you want to put a badge on.
Nice looking bolt on.

I see a couple things that make me wonder if Bryan Adams may have worked on this horn. The decal being one of them,,, it is not an original "film" decal from what I can see in the photos, it's a die-cut decal. Looks cool !! I know that Bryan replaced the badge emblem on some 70s Emmons guitars he worked on with die cut decals he had made up.

That's a good looking mica wood-neck (always wanted one) and I must admit, I find it enticing.

Bryan Adams

I also see a few things with the under carriage that makes me believe the Bryan Adams worked on this beauty. Bryan did outstanding work on Emmons guitars. I know because I've had the pleasure of having a few of them pass through my hands!

Good luck with the sale, Steve!
Best regards,

Image Think that was my guitar at one time. If it was, I put the decal on it. It did have a sticker on other side that said built by Brian Adams. The built by was real small letters and Brian Adams was big letters. I got tired of people calling me Brian so I took it off..If that’s same guitar, it sounded and played awesome. I also think I put those flags on it.
