Are those a volume knob and a pickup tone selector along the inner right side?

The selector switch is for the coil taps and the pot is to roll off some of the highs. It is possible for any player with these controls to get the tonal balance they prefer from mellow to bright. I wont disclose the price although it is more than you pay for any production Steel but not over the top. For the tone and build quality in this instrument I consider it outstanding value for money and I am also sure it will increase in value over time.

The underside of my Emmons PP is a veritable feast for the eyes, compared to the Annapeg

| Richard, I am sorry to tell you but your brandx model looks like a bundle of bent coat hangers compared to this Anapeg. Brian |

OK Peter but I'll bet they can't break springs and strings or exercise your left leg muscles anywhere near like a push pull.
Got ya there. |

I think if you compare the 2 photos of the undercarriage you will agree that there is a quantum inter-planetary difference !!!!
The message from the Anapeg to the Push-Pull is "Push-Off" !

| This is not meant as A put down in any way, but having never seen one of these guitars and hearing about the waiting time and price of these instruments,what makes these guitars so outstanding? Inquiring minds would like to know. Sincerely, J W Day |

Hey JW
just a little info .....Noel personally goes out West with his FWD and trailer and collects the wood for his guitars from property owners that he is in contact with.....prob even chops down the trees himself.......I am not sure if it is Mulga .....think it is though...very heavy and tough wood ...peculiar only to Aus I think
Has his changers Laser cut..they have a straighter pull so they dont break strings.....I am pretty sure he winds his own pick-ups to whatever you want
Tom Brumley has two of his guitars....Noel flew out and set them up just as Tom wanted them......I know Al Perkins has one..he may have two...........quit a few guys here have them....I have tried a couple.......including Noels own guitar but dont feel comfortable on a keyles guitar...too short for me...so I'll stick to my 74 Emmons !!!!
Hope this helps
Tony |
