Fessenden D-10 8 x 6
True Tone single coil pickups, sound great.
Tapped for splits on 2, 5, 6, and 9 on E9th
Emmons setup knees and pedals
Deep Purple mica cabinet!
Thomas compact case
4 pedals and 5 knees operate E9th
5 pedals and 3 knees on C6th The CKL is dedicated to C6th, and lowers 2 a 1/2 and raise 6 a 1/2. Opposite pedal 6.
Pedal 4 does double duty, normal C6th raising 4 and 8 a while to B, and raises strings 1 and 2 to unison with 3 and 4 on E9th
This is a fine sounding and playing guitar at what I feel is priced in the "priced to sell range". YMMV....
*** a few empty screw holes in undercarriage, and the divider in case could use replaced. I received it this way, and just put a piece of foamboard temporarily, it works but not considered a "fix"***
$3250 picked up in Kent, no haggle price.
Can drive up to a 2 hour radius to help with drive if needed.

Possibly Damir, the fella I purchased it from bought it from Bobbe's shop 10+ years ago. Did it have TrueTone pickups? |

I bet it is Damir, very cool guitar! I got quite a few compliments while playing a few gigs with it.
This guitar is by all means accounted for, I will update when transaction is completed. |

Yes Paul, it appears so. I had to sell my Zum last year and have always remembered how nicely your Fessy sounded and how smoothly it played. I have been holding out in hopes of finding a lacquer Zum, but the clincher here is that one of the guitarists I play with has a Strat the same color of purple 😎 |

Awesome! Is it by chance a cover band of all Prince songs done in a country style?
Welcome to the club. . if you decide to go to humbuckies, I find that 710's and Eons sound great on these. Probably E66 too. |

Sons of Hudson plays all manner of covers from Hank and Merle to Dead and Floyd, including a couple of my faves from Gillian Welch, plus a dozen or so first rate original songs in the book and another two dozen more to work up. Jon Lindahl is nearby in Danbury CT now and helping us get a proper product together for the coming season.
