Nice guitar. Looks like a 67 based on the serial number.

Yes Jack who ever did the conversion only left one Knee. Michael Yhal makes knees for push pulls at a reasonable price. An many other Emmons push pull parts.

No offense Johnny, but someone needs to quit removing back necks on the vintage Emmons guitars. The D 10s are getting rarer by the year because people are keeping them. Also,, any guitar that has been modified to a single neck just looses some all way round, sorry, just my two cents.

For a complete restoration of this 1967 bolt on like the one pictured above can be restored to look like the one pictured Here.
I just finished this one that was in pieces for a good friend.

For what it’s worth, that’s an awfully rare Emmons pick up - thick white middle pick ups were only on guitars for less than a year, I believe.
