Is it a Baldwin crossover?
That's one of the most breathtaking cabinets I've ever seen!

| This is not a crossover model, but it was built during the Baldwin Sho-Bud era. The E9th. neck was upgraded with new style bellcranks, pull rods, nylon tuners and complete new changer. The C6th. has new style bellcranks and pull rods, but still has the origional changer. |

This is the first time I have seen white fret boards with "all" black markings. Are they actually new fret boards? Usually the hearts & diamonds are red.
Can they be purchased that way now?
Thanks,

Neil; the hearts and diamonds ARE red; either your screen is not picking that up or the picture resolution doesn't match up with your screen.

Thanks guys!
The "red" shows up bright & clear on the front decal on my screen, but for some reason, maybe the angle; they all look black on the fretboards. Nice old bud, I have one that looks just like it with black fretboards. Wish mine had a newer updated mechanical system!

These guitars really have that classic Sho-Bud sound.Must be because they weigh a ton and a half. Would make an excellent studio guitar.

If that guitar didn't start out life as a crossover, what's that hole doing on the right end of the player's side?  |

That hole was probably for a switch, which I've seen on Buds of that vintage. Maybe tone defeat, or neck selector.
The crossover lever would have been on the left, near the keyheads.
Nice gtr, any way you slice it.[This message was edited by Skip Edwards on 17 February 2006 at 04:56 PM.]
Okay, so I've looked closer and compared to other Crossover pics. It kinda looks like there might be a hole in the back apron on the left where the crossover switch would normally be. And there's a notch in the black metal frame between the necks on the undercarriage where the crossover axle would have been. That's visible in the underneath pic on the Duane's Music site.
It's sure not a crossover today, but it sure looks like it may have started out as one. What other model was made from that era? Didn't Sho-Bud go directly from the Crossover to the Professional?[This message was edited by Skip Edwards on 17 February 2006 at 05:13 PM.] [This message was edited by Skip Edwards on 17 February 2006 at 05:14 PM.] |

Skip yes that was indeed a Sho-bud Crossover in its Original form.
Looks like it's a Duane Marrs update on crossbars and pullers and E9 changer finger assembly and crossbars and pullers on the C6 side.
There were some rack and barrel Sho-bud's that were "distibuted by Baldwin" there in the very late 60's right before the Professional; but they had the all metal tailpiece like the professional and not the wood neck wrapping around the changer mounting that the crossover was.
You can see in this picture of Lloyd's Sho-bud that was distributed by baldwin; which later became the prototype for the LDG; does indeed have the metal tailpiece mounting and not the wood neck wrapping around the changer>
Lloyd Green's Baldwin Bud
So other than a handful of those made; No there was no other Sho-bud between the Crossover and Professional.
This Sho-bud Duane as posted for sale is certainly not a Crossover anymore; which to me, is a GOOOOOOD Thing; and so this one will play so much better and looks to be in awesome shape.

| Well,,, crow sure doesn't taste good, but I must apologize to all interested in this guitar. I was told this guitar was not a crossover model, but I clearly see a hole on the left side of the rear apron, probably made for a crossover lever. Sorry guys, I didn't intend to mislead anybody, I just had incorrect information. Hope bOb doesn't banish me from the Forum. D.D. |

| Duane; can you see the ser# anywhere? Just curious if it's a 'close cuzzin' to #7088, the X-over I have, an identical twin, sans "Baldwin" on the front apron. Thanks, ~JZ~ |

Hard to say Lee; without seeing them/measuring them up close.
They do look like a narrow line like the originals they did put on during that era; as the replicas that Duane Marrs has wider lines.

| Also the six pedal configuration is a "dead giveway". I bought one "brand spankin' new" in 1970. |
