Emmons Push Pull S/N question

Post by Tony Prior »

This S/N appears odd to me, it's an 8+5 D10 Push Pull. Any takers ? No "D" in the S/N...

Thx !, No not for sale at this time but who knows down the road.

The Steel was just set-up and re-configured to standard Emmons ABC factory configuration by Doug Palmer, former Emmons factory tech. Doug has this baby humming ! It's a very nice Low Gloss Black 8+5 D10, plays and sounds great,I am in the process of updating all of the tuner keys, then maybe down the road it may be offered for sale, but not until I gig with it for awhile.

But knowing it's mid 80's is good !

The 6K range of numbers were built during the 80's and were the last of regular production models. They usually did come with the newer style, extruded pedals.

Hey Philip,
I have 1702 D. It's a '72 if that helps.

I dont know that the D's are the same serial numbers as the S ...if they are it would put it around 1972...
Someone else said it could be about 77//78
Maybe I'll hear more about SN 1603 S
