Emmons Reisue S10 question

Gary Mcquaig · Post by **Gary Mcquaig** » 11 Jul 2015 4:48 pm

Does anyone know how many Emmons reisued 4&5 S10's were made. I have number #003 and would like some history.

Gary, I don't know the answer to your question but your guitar is gorgeous!

Who did the finish?

My first Push-pull was a D-10 in that exact same finish.

I would like to own a guitar exactly like that.

Hello Gary;
Very beautiful guitar there!
I would have to say contact Mike Cass.
I would think if he don't know that he can find out.

I used to own #007, which was a green lacquer D-10. I think that the reissues were made with left over n.o.s. bodies.
Maybe we could start a registry. I'm guessing that there aren't more than a couple dozen of them.
Doug Palmer would probably know, he built the one I had.

My Steel has Nr. 6547. I installed the old style pedals.

Thanks guy's for your input. Does anyone have a contact for
Mike Cass? I think the suggestion to start a registry for these guitars is a great idea, because these are awesome guitars. I have have owned 2 other original Emmons a D10 and
SD10 and this guitar has the same tone quality as my previous emmons. It plays great and stays in tune.

Contact Billy Knowles, I think he would be able to help you..

Gary Mcquaig · Post by **Gary Mcquaig** » 12 Jul 2015 6:50 am

Do you have a contact number for Mr Knowles?

He is also a forum member and owner of www.steelguitareast.com, as well as the nicest guy you will ever encounter!

I presume these are the reissued push pull Emmons I've heard/read about? They are drop dead gorgeous in the lacquer finish.

Best,
Chris

I own the first reissue D-10.....made around 2004 or so.

Doug Palmer · Post by **Doug Palmer** » 12 Jul 2015 12:09 pm

Gary, I believe I built that Guitar. If it is the one I think it is, the body was an old one built by Tom Lashley. Bruce Troupe made the metal parts and I assembled it. All of those reissue guitars had incredible tone.

Gary Mcquaig · Post by **Gary Mcquaig** » 12 Jul 2015 12:14 pm

Thats great Mike.If you could email me a pic of you and your guitar. I want to start a photo album of the Guy's
who own the reisue's and pic's of them and their guitars, names and contacts. And put them numerically by guitar serial # in a package that I could send to each of them. That way everyone would have an idea of just how many that
was actually produced weather it be a S10,SD10 or D10.

Gary Mcquaig · Post by **Gary Mcquaig** » 12 Jul 2015 12:21 pm

Mr Palmer if the guitar I have is the one you guy's built and put together I just want to say thanks for an awesome
job that you have done on this one. It plays and sounds great.Would you know the year of assembly?

Jeff Garden · Post by **Jeff Garden** » 12 Jul 2015 12:33 pm

I have #001 of the S-10 reissues, Gary. It was originally owned by Lynn Stafford and then Steve Price. I think Doug Palmer built it out of 1970's NOS parts in 2004 (and did an awesome job on it!). It's sort of a blue/green lacquer finish.

Gary Mcquaig · Post by **Gary Mcquaig** » 12 Jul 2015 12:39 pm

Mr Garden that's a beautiful finish on that, and thanks for the pic, That put's you #1 on my list.
