Did Emmons Guitar Co. ever build single neck, single frame all pull guitars?

I'm amazed that after 38 views of this topic, no one here has answered the man's question!

Yes, Emmons Guitar Inc. made S-10 guitars from the very beginning in 1965 until I'd say the late 70's or early 80's.

Ooooppss... my bad. These ol' eyes just aren't finishing sentences very well lately.

I'll have to amend my answer to say "well... I've never seen one, but that don't mean there ain't one."

Herb, I've looked on YouTube and used steels for an all pull single frame Emmons but have never seen one. It's hard to imagine they never made any. The question is if they ever had single frame end plates made in all pull. Maybe someone can offer some info on the subject.

The only S-10 single neck Emmons guitars built were the Push Pull guitars. They never made a single neck LeGrande(All Pull) on a single frame. The ST-10 LeGrande is on a double body with the loafer pad. They never made a LeGrande 12 string as far as I know. Maybe Jack Strayhorn can chime in here for sure.

ALRITE!!! You all need to lighten up on my great friend, Herb.
There is nothing wrong with his eyes. I've seen some of the chicks that hang with him. Smile

I chalk the mistake up to a typographical error. Rolling Eyes

Cheers!!

No S-10's or 12 strings of any kind in the LeGrande all pull model. Only D-10's and ST-10's.
