Hey Gary, why do the end plates on the older Prestige guitars like mine have screws in the end plate and the newer builds don’t? Dale Rottacker wants to know too. He has Wayne’s guitar.
Dale
I ask if he could built it the way I wanted it when I order it. I wanted the old style end plates no screws and the old style taper neck and he did, everything else is the same as any Prestige I supply the chrome 705. Hope this help with your question Gary GREAT to work with, thanks God Bless frank
Hey Dale the customer Mr. Frank Raines wanted this guitar custom built for him. I did this and explained that the guitar would be more stable with the bolt on end plates and would probally sound a little different than the standard prestige even though everthing else was the same.The changes made were the end plates, neck, and custom inlays to date I have built 2 guitars that are like this. this note is for my good friends Dale Foreman and Dale Rottaker thanks GR.
Hey Mike Scaggs You are truly a great craftsman the Emmons refurbs have been amazing as i have followed your rebuilds now for a while and you are also a good friend GR.
