I'd like to get my Emmons S12(1969)-push/pull a check-up.I need to know where i can send it for a good cleaning,check/change springs, and tune it correctly.Is there anyone in the NJ/NY area that does this kind of work?- Thanks-Jim

Jim,
Brian is in Mountain City(Northeast) TN.
I took my guitar to him and he set it up while I waited, about 5-6 hrs. Call him and check on turn around time.

BA does great work! He completely restored my 71 push pull and it's like a totally different guitar.

Mike Cass also does fantastic work and is a great picker as well! mwillsteel@aol.com<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Kevin Mincke on 14 January 2004 at 09:05 PM.]</p></FONT>

B.A. aint no slouch at playing one either. He's been working on my guitars for over 20 years.

Give Bobbe Seymore a call. He really pushes the push-pull guitars and has a full time steel guitar music store in Nashville. You can find his website as www.steelguitar.net and he has a tremendous amount of knowledge concerning this instrument.
