My black Emmons Lashley LeGrande II D10 has ser. # 1457L.
Is there someone out there that can tell the birth date of this PSG and if someone knows the history of my guitar.
I know it´s been to Germany for a while but I would like to know some more about my Emmons machine.
I will appreciate any kind of information.
Thanks a lot
Kjell

Kjell,
Contact Ron Lashley, Jr at ronlashley@emmons.com or call the factory at 336 227-2782. Ron, Jr, Becky, or Bobbie can look it up for you and tell you anything you want to know about that guitar. Emmons keeps pretty good records on everything they build.
Hope this help.
Cheers!

Thank you Benton,
I´ve already sent an email to Ron Lashley, as you suggested and I´m looking forward to what he will come up with.
Take care

Based on my two Emmons LG111s, I'd make it around 1995 or '96. (It's no more than an educated guess, though - do let us know when you get the answer, please!) _________________ Roger Rettig: Emmons D10, B-bender Teles, Martins, and a Gibson Super 400!

It's a late 95 or 96. Built during the Strahorn era. I'd as soon have it as new one. Assuming it's set-up right? It'll darn near play itself. ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |
