This is one I just don't play anymore. I don't think I've had it out of the case but one time in the last three years so I'm going to let it go. I bought it from Tommy Cass around five years ago. It had been under the bed for a long time because the previous owner had taken up dobro and didn't play it anymore either. So with that said it gives you an idea of how good shape this guitar is in. It's the bolt-on alluminum necks with 8/8. The under carriage on this guitar looks like chrome no kidding. It's got the original single coil Emmons p-ups. I think the E9 is 15.3 and can't remember what the C6 is but not far off from the E9. This has got to be at least a 9.8 in every way. It has chrome lined fretboards with original tone knob. It's the standard Emmons set-up on both necks. The 4th pedal lowers the 5 and 6 strings a whole tone on E9. The vertical on the C6 lowers the 5th string a whole tone, very cool change. I can't post pix here but can send them in an e-mail to serious buyers. It also has the OHSC. It's all in great shape with tone to the bone and it's black mica of course.
$4000 plus shipping to the lower 48.
No trades please. |
