There's a left handed steel player named Monte Good, who played an Emmons like that in a video by country singer John Michael Montgomery called "Be My Baby Tonight".

| Looks like a pull-push to me. I bumped into a guy not long ago that was looking for a lefty to learn to play on. I told him they were kinda hard to find. |

| Sure did. Cannot second guess when you are a lefty. Got to jump on deals like this, cause once they are gone, they are gone. A righty has the choice of hundreds of guitars at any moment. Not us. You could wait years and years before a deal like this comes up. |

| Got the Amp, now I just need a vol pedal with the jacks on the left side, not the right! Really those cords only get in the way of the P8 pedal. |

Matt, get some thin GL cables with right-angle ends. That might fix your problem.

Thanks for the tip.
You have a great sounding amp. Thats the king of all amps as far as I am concerned.

Thanks for checking out my video! Yes, the Fender Twin SF is a killer steel amp. I can't get as much headroom as I like out of it, though. I'm trying a Custom 15 next week to see how I like it against the SF.
BTW, I'm a lefty too.....but I play right-handed. Congrats on that beautiful PP.

Hey Matt!
Did you get the Emmons left handed (backwards) seat with it too?

Chris,
Thats the amp I use. The BF Twin Custom 15. I love it. More headroom than I can use. I play in an 8 piece band and I rarely get it above 2.5. Lots of clean headroom.
Benton,
That was the deal maker! The seat came with it. Now I can return my milk crates to the back of Circle K. |
