Invoice no. 2736. Bolt-on, black flocking, Emmons setup. This appears to be a mostly original guitar in all respects. About a 9 out of 10 condition. Plays and sounds great. Comes with an as-new 1969 Emmons drop-pin volume pedal I bought some years ago from Jay Dee Maness.
I have $4500 in it with the volume pedal, so I will take the best offer over that, plus you pay shipping. New case, and leg bag.[This message was edited by Tom Quinn on 25 January 2006 at 09:49 AM.] |

| Ok, I didn't know that. When did they stop using invoice and start using serial? I see you have 65/66. Is there some confusion as to the year? |

Only on my part. One person said it was a 65, another an early 66. I don't want to mislead anyone about this guitar, so I'm playing it safe! -L-

Ivan, I'm so glad you posted. I suddenly realized I've tested positive for old age...
If you can get a guitar as far as N.Z (and how are the All Blacks doing!? :- )), I can get this guitar to Tokyo. I did it before, and I'll find a way to get around town with it. Maybe I'll buy a car, now that is just plain scary in left-drive Tokyo...
I got my old 74 Session 400 back to the house last night -- it was part of trade, and I missed it mightily. I played a 75 Emmons and this amp four or five nights a week through the 70s and early 80s.
I fired up the rig today, and realized I'll never get a better sound than this, and if I sell it, I'm losing part of my -- now distant -- youth.
Bob-san, please close this thread. I'm sorry guys, I'm gonna hang on to the guitar.
Thanks, and I apologize for the false alarm... :- ) Best thing that ever happened is that no one jumped on this guitar.
