Looking for an S10 Williams or Show Pro

Hey guys,

I'm looking for an S10 Williams or a Show Pro, with a wooden neck, in great shape. Preferably a 3x4 or 4x5, standard Emmons setup.

I've been looking for almost two months now, and have recently sold my GFI I've been playing the past seven years. Have gotten close on two guitars, but it hasn't come together.

Could use a new steel as soon as possible, so long as it's the right one.

Is anyone out there who's on the fence about selling their guitar and hasn't posted yet? It would go to a great home, and get played more than anything. I've been reaching out to all my friends and mentors.

Thanks,

Luke

Larry Howe had a gorgeous Williams S-`10 for sale a short while ago. A search should bring up the post..FYI:To the best of my knowledge, Show Pro does not build an S-10 model.

Thanks David, I tried reaching out to Larry. Show Pro makes a nice S10, as well as the Lloyd Green which is a single double and then another S10 between the two, with a 1/2 pad. Jeff is about as nice a guy as I've ever spoken with.

Please keep your ears open for me, thanks!

Lucas...could not agree more about Jeff, been playing a Show Pro D-10 (Tommy White model) for a few years now and could not be happier.Did not realize that he had expanded his line, when I purchased my guitar he was only building the D-10 and SD-10....Best of luck in your search.

Still Looking

Hey everyone, I'm still looking for an S10 Show Pro or a Williams. Anyone out there have one they're thinking of selling? I'm starting to feel like I'm hunting for a rare and endangered bird.

Lucas - very few Show Pro owners have or would ever consider selling, because they are such great guitars. You could not ask for a better guy to deal with than Jeff before, during, and especially after the sale. Maybe you should just let him build one for you just the way you want it.

I agree with Gary . I own two Show Pros . The last one I ordered I went to Jeffs and hand picked the wood for the cabinet . They usually have a pretty fast delivery , not a year or more waiting period like a lot of builders . I couldn't be happier with my guitars , and like its been said time and time again Jeff and Gloria are great people .

I took Larry's Williams--arrived last week and I couldn't be happier with it. Good luck with the hunt.

Consider a Desert Rose Vintage Pro if you are having trouble finding the others - pretty close to both Williams and ShowPro - available in s10 models. Gorgeous guitars with a great tone.

There's a nice keyless Williams going for 2500 in the for sale section. I'd be all over it if I had the bread.
