Dekley S-10 3+4 pre-slimline with single-coil pickup. Double raise/double lower. Copedant is fairly standard but can be changed before delivery. Very good sounding guitar in good condition. Plays smoothly, great tone, holds its tuning well. Heavy! (@55lbs in the case)

Probably built in the late '70s. I bought it on Ebay in spring 2005. Serial number (121-0104) doesn't quite match up with posted serial numbers in the Dekley manual. For a 25+ year old guitar it is in very good cosmetic shape. A few scratches on the metal but not much and not very noticable. Only major blemish is on the fret board where the corner is worn off. There is also a scratch at the 14th fret visible in that pic. Otherwise, I'd give it a 9 out of 10 cosmetically.

Case functional but beat up. Includes wheels and handle at opposite end.

$850 + shipping

Thanks for the close-ups Dan. I always have fought with my pedal rods fallin' out if I bump them. Now I see that the "hook" end is a bit larger than on my rods. Thanks again.
BTW, this guitar is a real work horse. I"ve had one for many years and play it regularly. Easy to work on... Easy to modify.

From the looks of the rods, setup is Emmons.

A workhorse indeed, Ray.

Here's the copedant:


LKL LKR P1 P2 P3 RKL RKR
1 F#
2 D# -D/C#
3 G# +A
4 E +F +F# -D#
5 B +C# +C#
6 G# -F# +A
7 F# +G
8 E +F -D#
9 D -C#
10 B +C#


Also, I realize now that I took that picture of the undercarriage a while back, before I changed the LKR to a single lower of the sixth string and put the seventh string raise on RKR.

It's still here.

A couple of people have expressed interest in trades, but I'd prefer to try and sell it outright first.
