Well, it pains me to sell this but it's hardly ever played and hoping someone will get to utilize it.
I bought the cabinet from John Billings about 4 years ago. He was pretty close with James Morehead(my original guitar teacher) and had him provide all the parts.
John also had all the aluminum professionally polished so this thing is really 'shiny'. Late 2019 or early 2020 I contacted Ricky and had him assemble everything and get it into excellent working condition. Here is some info straight from him:
It was made October 1973 and it’s a “Sho~Bud Emerald Green round-front Single-10” Barrel Tuning; with two-hole pullers on crossbars.
3 pedals; 4 adjustable knee lever; restored by Ricky Davis and Parts by James Morehead.
This is the best sounding single/single 6061 aluminum Finger shobud ever made and original Coil Tape pickup.
I consulted with Ricky on this sale....so thank you Ricky! I've included his copedent as that is how James set up my first steel guitar!
$3000 I'll split the shipping.

Yes folks; this is an UNBELIEVABLE playing and sounding Sho~bud made. It; to me, is a "Priceless Sound", and it has my Exact current Copedant set up on it....Same set up on All the Miss Leslie albums; and All Weldon Henson albums and all the Richard Linklater movie soundtracks for last 15 years.
If you feel Froggy; you better jump(oh and you'll never want to play another pedal steel).
