Sorry, but I just couldn't resist. I've never posted pictures before, but here goes...
The blue MSA Classic is a 1975 model and was my first and only guitar until I purchased the Legend new last year in St. Louis.

Here's a couple of mine. The Fingertip is 9/3, and is next up for restoration. The Shobud S-10 is 3/6, and I don't think I need to tell you who did it, with Coop's parts, do I? You gotta recognize the fireplace!

Here is my 1969 D-10 Rosewood Emmons P/P S/N 1312. Bryan Adams did a great job of restoring this Guitar for me. He's better at it than the Factory in my opinion. And yes, it has "that" sound.

Hey Calvin, sweet Mullen you have there!!
Roger, what amp are you playing your Emmons through? If it's got "that sound", it's sure got "that look", too!! That's sure nice work Mr. Adams did for you!! |

James, I'm playing my '69 Emmons through a 1977 Peavey Session 400, which I recently got back from the Factory, where Peavey Techs put it back to factory specs. I use a small amount of Delay and Reverb from my RV-3. I sometimes just use the Reverb from the Session 400 which does a very good job too. I also have a Nashville 112 I use occasionally and it gives you a good sound too.
This Emmons guitar sounds better to my ear than any P/P or All-Pull Emmons I have ever owned....and I have owned a Bunch of them over the years. I have let a few Emmons Guitars get away from me that I should have kept too.
I give credit to Bryan for the way the guitar was put together and taking the time to see that all the pedals were "Tweeked" to fit me. I am a beliver that if you feel good about how your guitar fits you and the way you sit behind it, you will play better and sound better. Thanks for your comments about the Guitar. |

| Doug, is this a custom job? I thought Super Pro's only came in black or red, and with no inlay on the neck(s). |
