I just finished completely restoring a '72 fatback D-10 9x5 with lacquer cabinet and necks for a customer in Canada.

Here are a few photos. The blue lacquer cabinet has beautiful birds eye figuring and black lacquer wood neck inserts. My friend, Bob Littleton did the lacquer work for me.

Sold this one to Dave Biller but it has since been sold to a few other lucky guys in Austin.

I custom built this one of a kind '68 Emmons S-10 for my friend, Rick Pedrosa here in Portland, Oregon a couple of years ago. It was stolen from him last December 2015 and just recovered a few days ago!

This is the 1970 Fatback that Skip is showing the day that I picked it up from Dana Flood & Albert Johnson alongside a Pro-II that I had. The interesting thing about this beautiful guitar is that Dana removed most of the original factory finish with a credit card!
It originally came from Emmons with no knee levers.
I wish that I still had it Crying or Very sad

Here's one that I'm tearing down as I write this for a full resto. No clue on the gold metal but it will all be polished out
