 I have decided to sell my beautiful 1976 SHO BUD "THE PRO II CUSTOM D 12 8 floor + 5 Knee levers guitar built by Paul Franklin Senior when he worked at SHO BUD. It has a split case with wheels.I always wanted a Franklin guitar and this is as close as I got.This guitar plays easy and sounds great, has a beautiful birds eye maple all over it. I made a trade for it with Caleb Berger back around April of this year. I converted it to a D 10 by changing a couple strings on each neck so it is an Emmons set up on both necks. I find that this guitar is too heavy for me to work on, since I have some back problems and wanted to add a couple of things I have on both my Emmons and Mullen guitars. It would be an easy convert back for anyone with a good back. I will sell it for $2300.00 plus the cost of shipping packing and Insurance to the lower United States.[img]

The dates on these pictures were on the camera and are not correct, These pictures were taken when I received the guitar from Caleb.

I had a problem with finding the pictures in the search section of this forum posted on 17th of April by Caleb Berger and I tried this, Sho-Bud d 12 1976 pro 2 custom and found them. They show better pictures than I posted and views of the undercarriage. My camera doesn't work, so I apologize for this inconvenience. I will buy a camera next week.

I may have to bite the bullet and work on making the changes I need on the piece of Sho-Bud history. I am not dropping the price again.

I have one almost identical to this, also 1976 I believe. It looks just the same underneath except my pedals are much wider. It's a wonderful instrument except for one thing:

Same here. That's why I play C6 only once every few years. |

Thanks Ernest, I had it at my church, but they had a problem with their insurance, so I brought it back home.

I have had an offer on this guitar I can't accept, but I noticed that I made no mention of the cases that come with this guitar. There are two cases, one is for the pedal bar and one is a wheeled case for the body. They are very nice cases, but still have no camera to show you. Sorry for not mentioning this in my first post.
I originally had this priced at $3,000.00 plus the cost to ship pack and insure. Now $ 2,300.00 Plus.

I made some adjustments to this guitar and played it today, It feels great and sounds too good to let it go, I will be playing it at church where it won't have to be moved much, Thanks all 8051 of you who took a look at this Paul Franklin Sr built Darlin, B0b, Please close it up.
