Fessenden U12, 7+5, triple raise/triple lower, all pull changer, w/TrueTone pickup and OHSC. Beautiful Red Walnut mica.
Emmons pedal setup.
LKL raises high F# to G# and lowers middle G# to G,
LKV lowers B to Bb,
LKR lowers top D# to D and middle E to D,
RKL lowers Es,
RKR raises Es.

Its very easy to change pulls to whatever you like. I'll make minor changes for free, but major changes (like to extended E9th) will cost $250 extra and a little more time....but it will be done right.

This steel is 2 years old and in excellent, A+ condition. I just did a complete teardown and cleaning and lubed everything, and re-adjusted. (I do this to every steel I own after a year or two) It plays great, holds it's tuning and the tone is absolutely incredible...crisp, smooth highs, punchy mids, and deep rich, lows with great string separation. And it doesn't break any strings!! You'll love this guitar!!

I'll send you my copedant setup via email attachment if you like (send an email request - not a post please), and I'll post pics in a day or so, also. Please request these only if you are really interested....I'm scrambling as it is these days just to keep up with everyday life.

So, why am I selling this beauty? My EX-employer recently "down-sized" and I now need the money for bills.
Sound familiar....yeah, its happening TOO much these days!!! (I still have my trusty Dekley, though, which I love also)

Price reduced to $1950 + shipping from 43015. I'd really prefer a local sale to avoid the packaging hassle and shipping risks, and I'm willing to meet you halfway within a reasonable distance from Columbus, Ohio. If I have to ship, it will be packaged VERY well.

And here's the pics... http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image12at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image11at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image10at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image9at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image8at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image7at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image6at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image5at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image4at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image3at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image2at640x480.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n310/sideman01/Image1at640x480.jpg

(Thanks to Curt Langston for the "how to" on posting pics)

Thanks, Billy. Yeah, she's a beaut! One of the best U12s I've ever played! I'd love to see her go to someone who will appreciate her like I have. I'll sure miss her.
