Emmons Push-Pull D-12 with 8 floor pedals and 5 knee levers. This guitar is in very good condition, and plays like a dream.
This guitar was recently serviced by Bobby Bowman, who is very well known for his expertise with Emmons Push-Pull guitars.
The price is $2400.00 for this one, plus shipping and insurance. Credit cards accepted.
Knee lever set up is as follows:
LRL E to F
LKR E to E flat
LKV F# to G#
RKL B to B flat
RKR E flat to D# and D
Pedal set up is standard Emmons.

If I didn't already own a pair of wonderful push/pulls (D10 and S12) I'd be jumpin' on this one. The price is right and I can vouch for Bobby Bowman's prowess as a push/pull tech. He worked his magic on both of my Emmons' and they play better than brand-new. So you can bet this (rare) D12 will play and sound excellent. 
Keep on pickin'!

PS: I can see Bobby's workmanship on the undercarriage. The undercarriage thumbscrew adjusters (mounted on the pull rods) are the knurled brass type that Bobby installs to replace the original "hex-screw" type. Bobby installed those on my D10 and they make "blind" adjustments a breeze. Grab this guitar while you can it's a good'un![This message was edited by Glenn Suchan on 03 December 2004 at 12:06 PM.] |

I wish I had the nerve to buy this! I woke up thinking about it.....
But - it's 'Emmons' not 'Day'; what would it cost to change it around? I keep thinking about what fun the extra strings on C6th would be, not to mention those bass-strings on E9th!
What year is it, by the way, Danny?

Roger, If the only thing holding you back is the set up - Bobby can change that for you in a heartbeat (or maybe two). He did a great job on my Sierra Universal. It was an Emmons set up and he changed it to the Day set up. Go for it!

| Roger. I believe the year of this one is 1973. Give me a call when you have the time, this really is an exceptionally nice guitar, and it has been very well taken care of by its owner. It plays well, and of course... has that true "Emmons" tone. I don't see many of these around anymore, and especially this well kept. |

What are the extra 2 strings on E9? And what are the extra 2 strings on C6? Does it include a case? Thanks.

| The owner called today and said he will drop the price on this guitar to $2200.00. This is a very good deal for someone for sure! |
