George L PF-1 pickup on E9 neck, stock pickup on C6.
Emmons setup. Sounds great!
Hard case with added wheels and end handle, is probaby 8 ouf 10 condition.

| High Scott, this guitar looks an awful lot like Gardner Cook's old Marlen; but I'm sure his was much older; perhaps the late 60's. Gardner is from Sharpsburg Maryland just north of where the Civil War Battle of Antietam was fought. He was a very busy player from the 50's through the early 90's. His Marlen had a great sound and one of the songs he did that got a lot of requests for was "Maiden's Prayer". The tone on his Marlen was about halfway between the tone of an Emmons, and those early Sho-Bud's. Anyone getting this guitar will be pleased I'm sure; great price too. |

Thanks Gary, it does sound beautiful! Just wish I was advanced enough to really make it sing!

Hey Gary, not to hijack Scotts post, but are you from the Hagerstown area? Gardner is still playing twice a month at the Williamsport legion. I use to go and hear him every chance I got a weekend off and him and Quention Peer were the reason I got into pedal steel.
