Short Keyhead Emmons D10 Legrande from early eightys.
Maroon mica.
8 ped. 6 knees. with parts for a 7th knee.
Spare Parts
Extra 4 hole bell cranks.
Exrra 14 hole bell cranks.
1 cross shaft.
It has my Copedent on it. But can be easily changed to your copedent.
5 knees are standard places on the guitar. (LKL LKV LKR RKL & RKR)
The 6th knee is an inside knee lever RKL. Right now it has an E neck, 4th string raise a whole tone on it.
This can be moved to a center lever for C6.
The 7th lever can be installed as a center lever for C6 as well.
This guitar has played alot of music, but still is in wonderful shape. Allthough not perfect, its in what I call Good shape cosmetically, (it could be buffed and shined up to look new again.) I call it Excellent mechanical condition.
Its been my primary axe for a long time now.
It has as near a push pull tone of any all pull Legrande I've ever played. In my opinion it has "That sound" and feel.
It has Geo L's E66 pickups on it right now.
It comes with the original Emmons pickups as well.
The original case is in decent shape allthough the tolex is tattered in a few places.
It has a nearly new airline approved custom road case made by Tx. Case in Stepehville, Tx. I had the case made custom to fit this guitar. The case is a top quality heavily padded road case. Very nice.
Asking $2200 for all.
I'll put YOUR setup on it.
I'll have some pictures ready on Friday.

These SKH guitars are really great. I have had mine for several years now, and I couldn't have gotten a finer axe anywhere. I bought it used about 6 or 7 years ago. I, too, wouldn't mind having another of these guitars.....they do have that tone. HAL

Pictures are ready.
I forgot to mention too that this guitar comes with 2 custom fit vinyl covers and a custom made leg pouch.
Check out my Nashville 1000 ad in the amplifiers section.
I'd make a man a heck of deal on guitar, cases, amplifier and its case. |

Another thing I might point out this is NOT the original mica. The original mica was a lighter pink color.
Bobby Rains put this mica on this guitar in 1997. It is flat its not a glossy mica. Its not a standard Emmons color.
I can send some better images if anyone wants to see it. |
