Show Pro 'Lloyd Green II model, four pedals, five knees, Emmons set up. Jeff built this guitar for display at the Dallas show a while back and nicknamed it, "Grape Jelly" which is a fair description of the deep plum color lacquer. Pickup is a 'Steeltronics' which really brings forth that classic Sho-Bud like tone,(came equipped with a BL 705 but could not dial in a tone that I liked). Guitar is in flawless condition with minimal playing time and never outside my home. Without a doubt, the absolutely most stunning guitar that I have ever owned...$3950.00 plus 1/2 shipping costs....Thank you for reading.
FYI: Pedal rods are 1/2" shorter which accounts for the pedal height, a new set of standard length rods is being shipped from Show Pro.

That’s just plumb pretty!
Why no pad on the rear?

Thanks to all for the compliments, truly is a playable work of art!
Daniel..Thank you for the nice comment, always a pleasure dealing with you.
Ken..Jeff explained to me that due to the custom finish and the beauty of the wood grain, he chose not to install a pad on this guitar. Also, as shown in the photo, the presence of the control panel for splitting the pickup coils. |

Mike and/or others, FYI I could modify/rewind/etc that pickup to have an additional tap if desired. The Z is designed to be repairable, no epoxy or other irreversible construction steps are used.
Awesome purple BTW!

| Neglected to mention previously; the wood used to build the cabinet is centuries old and was available from Show Pro as a $100.00 upgrade. |
