I just purchased an Emmons push pull D10 and have a few questions about its history, if anyone can help.
The serial number is 6699, there is no letter, such as D or L, just the numbers 6699 located on the bottom of changer for E9. It is a Rosewood, D10, glossy mica with black narrow Legrande type pedals. The four knee levers are also black.
Does anyone have any idea when this was built and why it has such a high serial number for a push pull?
It looks like the C6 neck has never been tuned as the red paint on the screws is still in place.
Also interesting is the Emmons logo has a brown backbround rather than black. (white lettering.)
The little knob on the neck switch is missing. Does anyone have one for sale?
Thanks for you help.

Marvin that's common on a Rosewood. The pedals are LeGrande type.I'd say it's of of the last ones.But can't remember what years that was.However there are a lot of guys here that do know. Maybe they'll check in soon........bb |

| I owned #6437 at one time and that was supposed to have been a 1983 model. |

Thank you for the quick reply and the information. I suspected it was a late model Push Pull. I was just concerned about the serial number with no letter and the black pedals.
I spent some time cleaning it up and it actually tunes up except for a couple of "lower" screws that are stuck. I will get those fixed today.
