This Emmons SKH needs a new home!

It’s c.1987, serial #357 with 4 hole pullers (see pics).

Features Schaller keys, Lashley LaGrande changer, stock Emmons single coils c.18.5K, newer non-glare fretboards, drop return compensators, case in great shape, comes with Tuning wrenches, leg & rod pouch and loaded up with 8 and 8 (see copedant below). Overall condition is very good!

This steel has sat in my sister’s basement the last 13 years and has only seen action 3 times.

It’s just been lubed and all ready to ship out or be picked up from St Louis, MO zip 63132. Only thing I see it needs is new strings and the rollers oiled.

Asking $4200 plus shipping either UPS or FedEx.

As noted in the listing above, this SKH model has the Lashley LeGrande changer. Per previous posts, there was an era with Emmons between the LeGrande (Webbed changer, 4 hole), Lashley LeGrande (Open changer, 4 hole) and Lashley LeGrande II (14 hole) models where some buyers specifically requested the SKH (shorter body). If memory serves, Jack Strayhorn, at one time, chimed in on this. These special ordered steels were in the post 1986 era.
