POSSIBLE VINTAGE D10 EMMONS SALE OR TRADE SERIAL# 1543

Loren Bayles · Post by **Loren Bayles** » 21 Feb 2007 4:53 pm

This is a Beautiful Baby Blue, all wood, Laquer finish, bolt-on changers 8 x 4 D10 Emmons in immaculate condition with as new original case as well.
It is just too heavy for me to lug around and too nice to chance any damage to such a well preserved finish etc.
This guitar has spent years in the case in the closet and has been played little in it's lifetime considering it's age.
I would entertain offers of a trade for a nice pro S10 or lighter weight SD10 as either one would fulfill my needs as a player as long as it is in very good playing condition.
Have a few pics for anyone interested.
Price is $3400.00
Thanks,

LB

Thanks to all you good forum members who have asked for pics of the Emmons. I think I have sent to all who asked except Joe Comacho.

JOE.......I need your email address. I thought it would be in my address book as a result of my reply to you here but for whatever reason it was not so I could not send you pics.
As soon as I get your email I'll send pics right out.
Thanks again to all who have inquired.
No deal of any kind has been made as yet.
All trade offers will be considered as long as they are pro models in good condition.

Does the fret boards and knee levers look unusual to anyone else?

Bobby Boggs · Post by **Bobby Boggs** » 24 Feb 2007 6:18 am

The fret boards are the mid 90's wide fret makers.Standard on LeGrandes.The knee's are customized? A pretty guitar tough...........bb

I just viewed the undercarriage.Better let the owner explain the knee levers.

Is this a painted guitar? I am not familiar with wooden trim and necks on mica? Regards, Jay Thompson

Must be around a 1970 era as my '71 Emmons serial number is 1568

If 1543 is the serial number , it is a 1971..

I didn't think Emmons made bolts on changers in the seventies. Is this a guitar that someone has assembled ? Nice looking horn but ....?

As far as I know they stopped that end 60's Willis.

BTW....shoot me your phone number Willis.....You asked me to call you a couple times when I was in the process of migrating to the US..I might be shooting over to FL in a couple months and it would be great to talk to an ole dutch man....lol

All Emmons p/p's with wood necks had bolt-on changers.
And they did make mica gtrs with wood necks....some necks had inlay and some didn't.
