Hey Ron!!!
That must be one of those rare Emmons Push/Pulls we hear of occasionally that don't have "THAT" sound. :D
Thanks for the post!

Ok, here's my 1979 P/P lacquered body with 8 pedals and 6 levers. 5-way Pentad pickups on both necks. It definitely has "THAT" sound. :)

Nick since you have so many Emmons and do not get to play all of them, next time you come to see us, why just bring me one and I will help you play one so they will not feel left out.

Wow! Great-looking guitars... Here's my first PSG that I just picked up from Bobbe Seymour. Special thanks to Mark Van Allen for his "telephone support" in helping me pick this one out...
