Hi-
A friend of mine is selling his Sho-Bud single ten. 3x4 Emmons set-up. It has recently been restored (refurbished?) by Tom Bradshaw. It is natural finish with a maple neck.
If it sells to a forum member he will be sending a donation. Actually, I think I convinved him to join.
He would prefer to sell it in SF or Sacramento. He is bringing it by today so I can take some pictures to email to whoever is interested.
His number is 559 905-0548
I will post more detailed info after I get a closer look.[This message was edited by Joseph Carlson on 20 October 2005 at 08:01 AM.] |

If you can send pics, that would be great. I'll be driving through Sac next weekend. I'll call the seller in the meantime.

Hi-
As far as dating a Sho-Bud, I'm not really sure. On this guitar Tom Bradshaw put a plaque saying that it was a 1978 Sho-Bud that he worked on in 2004. I'd imagine it would have to do with the year various changes were made to the mechanism along with the serial number.
Regards,

Yes; there is no way to tell the year of a Sho-bud from the serial number> as those numbers were put on there for only personal identification purposes.
I would say that if Tom Bradshaw says it's 1978; than it is, as he's well aware of when each model and style sho-buds were made through the years.

Cool!
I'm glad she got a new home. I was this close to buying her myself, but there was no way I could justify owning three steels given my current skill level.
I'll make sure Natan sends the appropriate donation to this fine forum.
Regards,
Joe |
