I got this guitar on trade and it was already in good shape when it arrives.I cleaned up some electrical issues, gave the laquer a little love and fine tuned the setup. It's gotta be the nicest looking steel I've come across. This is, too me, what a steel should look and sound like. It plays and stays in tune nicely. I play it nightly in socks to give you an idea. The pickups are loud and proud, both do not have taps. There are *gasp* Emmons parts on the Knees, and they function perfectly. Comes with original case. This is the second fingertip I've had and I think they are wonderful instruments. Im by no means an expert but I'm happy to answer any questions and share what I have learned about these Bud's.
1650

Forgot to include, Emmons set up on the pedals with what I believe is the Sho Bud set up on the levers, LKR lowering the E's , RNR raising the E's, and RNL lowering 2 & 9.

Just a note. I played a Fingertip D 10 for well over 40 years. Never had any reason to change as the tone and sustaining value of the instrument is I.M.H.O. Top notch and never equaled. But then again--- I may be biased.

Thank you for the kind words. Randall, the C6 pedals are the same as pedals 5, 6, and 7 of a modern D-10.
