I am selling this for a brother steeler's widow, Mrs. Les Milam. Les passed away about 6 years ago and she is ready to sell. With all the hype going on with these guitars, we figured now is a good time. They seem to be bringing premium price. This guitar is an older guitar. I bought it from Herb Remington in 1982 and sold it to Les in 1990. Les played it until he died and it was put in the case under the bed and stayed there until now. The guitar has 9 pedals and 8 knee levers. Bill Lawrence 705 pickups. Was originally a stereo guitar. Satin black mica and guitar needs a good cleaning. One piece of mica trim has come unglued and needs repair. I have put several pictures and hope I can answer questions. By the way, the copedent is basically the Franklin setup except the Franklin pedal is on #1. Es lower with right leg. Case is rough looking but a good case. Serial Number is 020.
The price is $6500 ..CM

Just looking at that C6th changer one would have to surmise that the guy didn't play the back neck much
