Late 1970's Emmons S-10 P/P...

Post by David Nailling »

I just can't justify keeping this thing around while in graduate school. I don't have the time to practice/learn, and I can't justify keeping cash tied up in a beautiful instrument like this. Shame!

Anyway, the serial number, as you can hopefully make out in one of the photos below, is 1620 S. From what I know, that means this little fella left the factory in the late 1970's.

Mr. Bobbe Seymour of Steel Guitar Nashville recently worked his magic on this one. I'll be happy to scan the service receipt upon request.

I'll also be happy to take additional photos upon request.

I'm new to the steel game, so I don't have my finger on the pulse of vintage prices. Let's say... $1750 or best offer shipped to the lower 48? If anybody is interested, I hope we'll be able to work something out!

Just to clarify for a few who've asked...

The Emmons is tuned in E9. As I don't know how to accurately type out a copedant on the forum, I'll be happy to e-mail to you a description of it.

Thanks!
