D-10, Legrande II, 8 pedals, 9 knee levers, Emmons set-up. Serial Number 1260L. Rose mica finish. 2” lift kit (can be easily removed). With brand-new, wheeled case that allows you to move this steel in its own “hand-truck”. Its great for all you Steelers with back problems, me included. I don’t know what the pickups are, I’m assuming they are original Emmons. Email me for the copedant. Pictures are at
www.lindaroseband.com/Steelemmons.htm www.lindaroseband.com/Steelcase.htm

I'm selling it to help cover the cost of a new mandolin.

I’m going to give you Forum members the benefit of describing the history of this guitar that I wasn’t aware of when I purchased it a while back. After I received it I took it to Scotty’s for a “tune up”. I was shocked to find out that one of the previous owners was a tinkerer, to say the least. By the time the repair work was completed, including replacement of some non-factory, home-made parts and misinstalled knee levers, I ended up with a big parts and labor bill to get the guitar back into good mechanical condition. The only thing that I know is currently wrong with the guitar, again due to the former owners, is that the volume control does not work.

$2200 (the case alone is worth $300)plus buyer pays shipping.
