Wanted to learn how to play and picked this up several years ago. Have been totally out the loop and need some help on todays pricing. Basically this has been in storage.
Thanks again and let me know if your interested in purchase

Looks like a $3000 guitar to me. Those 68 Emmons are special.

Agree with Bob. These early ‘issues’ were usually (unless special requested) a 6 Pedal, no knees, out the factory door. (A shaft extends across the back of pedal bar in one photo). My guess: reconfig’d later on, with more knees, 3 less pedals.
And that pristine (almost) case is an indicator of ‘stored away’. Won’t find many like it in 2021. Cool

Looks like three knee levers.
Knee lever on the left (in the picture) appears to be connected to a half-stop.
