Jerry... talk to Billy Knowles about Emmons Steels...
From what I have seen on the forum concerning the status of the Emmons Co, that would be you best bet.
Here's his website..

| I ordered some fretboards from the factory a few months ago, and they were delivered right away. I think parts are okay, but I'd buy a guitar somewhere else. |

Its too bad that it boiled down to this with Emmons. They still could have been one of the guitar manufacturing leaders if not for miss management. I hope that someone will turn it around someday!
Some one needs to a hero and save Emmons. |

Richard,
Please relate some of your experiences with Emmons and not just hearsay from others. |

Emmons has always had the parts and accessories I have ordered from them in stock and shipped them to me with no problems.

Richard,
What is your personal experience with Emmons?
Just a simple question, I don't need a lecture.  |

There is already a long and contentious thread on this going back to last July. Bobby Boggs has answered the OP. I know I'm a long way away but is any more really needed?

Looking back, I see the OP is just looking for parts. I will delete all my posts as they are about the company and getting new guitars. My mistake.

| They had a Blackrock model. Next one could be the Deadhorse. |
