Regretfully I am selling my Beautiful blue 1974 Pro 111 Sho- Bud. Eight floor pedals, and four knee levers, set up Emmons with Es lowering on the LR. This guitar has been completely taken apart and every piece cleaned and immaculately put back together by well known Henry Matthews. Sho-Bud volume pedal is included. The original pickups were bad and have been replaced with single coils which really make this guitar sing. The changer is a 2 over 1. Comes with case.$3400 plus shipping. Willing to meet.

Beautiful "Blue Darlin'" Steel Guitar. If I could pack the weight around, I would jump on this Steel Guitar and never look back. Absolutely Gorgeous Steel Guitar. Gene Crain is a Great Steel Guitarist and everything he says would be accurate. It would be a Steel Guitar that would be awesome! Great buy and better Steel Guitar than most of those made these days. GOD bless you Gene!
