Okay, I have some other wants/needs/desires, and that entails thinning the herd somewhat, as they say.
So, up for sale is a Emmons SKH* LeGrande, black in color, 8 pedals and 5 knee levers. The fifth knee lever is on C6 LKL, recently added by Bobby Bowman, who also did a lube/setup. So there are 4 knee lever changes on E9 and 3 on C6. The bellcranks are 4-hole. The case is in the condition you'd expect for a guitar of this age, but is certainly functional.
The pickups are Bill Lawrence 710 models, which are humbucking pickups and sound great. The tuning machines are Grover.
The copedent is standard Emmons, but I can put your setup on the guitar, within reason of course. The guitar, while not "under the bed" mint, is in generally excellent condition for a guitar 27 years old. I bought the instrument last year from a Forumite professional to use as a road guitar, but hardly took it out and right now I'm no longer a road warrior so I really have no need for the horn at this particular time.
I have two sets of legs/rods, one set standard height, one set 1.5" short. Either set will convey with the guitar, or both sets for an extra $125.
Those of y'all who have seen my guitars know that I don't tolerate bad playing instruments, so rest assured everything works on this guitar and it's in very clean condition. I don't have the guitar set up right now, but when I do I can post photos.
I have $2750 in this guitar, and that's what I'm asking for it. This seems to be the going price for SKH guitars right now. I'd prefer to deliver the guitar at the Texas Jamboree in March, but of course shipping is available for about (I guestimate) 60-75 bucks.
* "SKH" stand for "short keyhead." This was the first model of all-pull Emmons, made around 1979-82, and considered by many to be one of the more sought-after sounding Emmonses.

Jerry, et al.
Here's some photos...
The copedent is as follows...
E9: standard Emmons pedals, LKL E-F, E-F; LKR E-D#, E-D#; RKL D#-D-C#, D-C#; RKR F#-G, F#-G.
C6: standard Emmons pedals, LKL A-Bb, A-Bb; RKL C-B; RKR C-C#, C-C#
About as standard as it gets, in other words.
