Zum SD12 5 & 4 1978 Lacquer
I have a 1978 SD12 that is in pristine condition, E9th tuning, This is a lacquer finish, with inlay on the front, the floor pedals are an Emmons setup, as well as the knee levers, I have dropped the price to $1900.00 includes the original Zum volume pedal that works, This is my third SD model guitar, so one of them needs to go.

Great talking with you Larry.....I took your advice and did some research.The mods I would be interested in would be too extensive so I am going to pass on it. I appreciate your concern about it going to the right person and & application.It sure is a beauty. Good luck.Dean

Re: Zum 12
Sorry you couldn't take the guitar, I've played it a lot more since the post and I see why everyone is so big on the Zum steels, it stays in tune, it is easy to tune, and the tone is so true, By the way I got the volume pedal working, not only does it work but it so much hotter than my Goodrich pedals.Dean Richard Varga wrote:Well I'll take it if it's available.I'll call in a couple hours.Thanks,Dean

Dean, I have dropped the price on the steel to $2100.00 evidently it was over priced, and the volume pedal works great.Dean Richard Varga wrote:Great talking with you Larry.....I took your advice and did some research.The mods I would be interested in would be too extensive so I am going to pass on it.

Tom Gorr, without knowing the serial # it's hard to say, but I am pretty sure any Zums from the 70's were 3raise/2 lower changers. Also no splits screws. Nonetheless, if the lack of those mechanical features don't bother you, these vintage Zums sound fabulous!
