Thanks guys, It's fun for me to take these old wore out guitars and make them as good or better than new. There is definitely tone locked up inside these old push pulls. The exciting part is once they are done and you get to hear them for the first time!

Does anyone have 2 of the rubber feet that go on the adjustment screws for an Emmons Volume Pedal? I would like to buy two for Brownie's pedal...

Here is Brownie's final picture. It is a great guitar and has a new home now. It's been a fun project and I appreciate all the comments and interest.

I can't begin to explain what a joy it is to play this Emmons. Mike it truly is a special guitar. You did a phenomenal job getting this instrument back inline. I'm in awwww. Thank you for allowing me the chance to own this one. It's a blessing and a privilege. Much like you, both a blessing to know and privilege to call you brother.

Daymon, I humbly thank you for your kind words. Yes, Brownie is a very special push pull. There are things about this guitar that are truly hard to explain. There is a tone unlocked in Brownie that cannot be rationally explained. The only design change I did to that guitar was the added wood pedal stop bar and the chrome 705s. Take good care of Brownie as I am guessing he will be around a long long time...
Cheers,
Mike
