Bobby Bowman is the man in this here area. I have also had Charlie Ward a complete overhaul on a Single 10 Emmons. Sent a pile of junk ,got back a like new guitar.Took a little time but his price was more than fair, He was also able to snag me an originial Emmon case.

gentlemen,
i'm not pretending to be a wizard in this matter. this is a proyect i wanted to do myself for my personal satisfaction.
yes... i give all the very well deserved credit and respect to those people who dedicate their time and effort to make these vintage guitars look like new again.
as i found out myself, "this is no easey task". it is very messy and time consuming.
but i'm very happy and proud, for i was able to work on my own guitar and made it look like new again.
bobby jacks: thank you for bringing up the subject, PUSH PULL REPAIR. mark herrick: thank for your interest in seeing photos of my guitar.
mike cass: thank you for your comments.
and ricky davis: thank you very much for helping me post the photos.

very respectfuly yours
