Here's the reply I got from him:
It is a 10 string and was no doubt originally three and had levers. I got it several years ago with two pedals, no levers and it was tuned to an open G. I learned it by ear that way and could never play it tuned the way they come from the factory. It is a walnut formica and chrome in beautiful. Stays in tune forever, and I suppose it can also be tuned to E9th, have no idea. It cries beautifully, and is easy to play in the open configutration.
I woill set it up for phots before I relist it because I have had over 25 inquiries and they all want photos.

Al, intersting. Form letter huh?
Anyway, the guy emailed me just now with more info. Pics should be up on cragslist shortly. He sent them all to me and from whatI can see: The 2 pedals are original Emmons and the guitar is a pro model, not a lil Buddy. Looks like there's room for one more pedal. I asked him some more ques. Here's the email I sent him:
Took these a couple minutes ago and will ge tthem out. Did not clean or polish and she will clean up better. She is beautiful under stage lighting.

Larry,
Thanks for pics.
Couple questions:
I'd appreciate pics of the underside too...So I could have seen if there is hook-up for knee levers..and if so, how many. Should be possibility for at least 4 levers.
Does it come with the original case? This is a hard case with lid and latches. Also, does it come with the vinyl leg- and pedal rod bag?
Pickup looks iffy: Magnets under string 5 and 8 are discolored (rusty?) Please test the magnets by gauging the pull on a thin steel rod, to see if the pull is even on all 10 magnets. Then, with the amp hooked up to the steel, leaving the vol ped in the same position, pick each string with the same force to see if the iffy magnets generate the same loudness as the good ones.
Also, if you would estimate the shipping from you to postal code N5Y1V6, Ontario Canada.
Thanks!
