Post by Don McKown »

I'm listing my 1999 Franklin Double Ten Steel. It's 8 pedals and 7 knees and has the standard Buddy Emmons setup with the sixth lower. It doesn't raise the 1st or 2nd string. It's in great shape. I'll add pictures later this evening. The colour is Teal. The pickups are XLR-16s


LKL raises 4 and 8
LKV lowers 5 ..currently tuned to Bb
LKR lowers 4 and 8
RKL lowers 6 to G# ...plus a split to G
RKR lowers 2 a half and a whole to C# and D Plus lowers 9 a half to C#.

C6 Levers

LKL raises 3 from C to C#
LKR lowers 4 from A to AB
RKL lowers 3 from C to B
RKR raises 4 from A to Bb


$8000.00 US Firm...plus shipping and any insurance you want on it.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers

Any interest in a 1958 Martin D-28 trade?

Thanks, John

I’ve known Don for many years, he’s as honest as the day is long and this guitar is in as new condition and been very well taken care of. The price is very competitive, someone is getting a bargain
I thought Nashville was the roughest, but I know I’ve said the same about them all.
I received my education, drivin through the Nation listenin to Paul!.. ( Franklin that is! )

Love this color!
Questions.

On the coped.
Unusual to not have any raise on 1st string, and the common 2nd string. Did you have it and remove it, or just never have raised string 1, even to G?

The C6 levers,
RKs on shared E9 levers? And the C6 LKs are on their own cluster?

Thanks, John

John
I bought this guitar new in 1999 and never had that change put on it.

Yes the right knees are shared with C6 as is usual
It seemed easier to describe their function separetly.
