I have probably one of the early Zum S-10 10 string Push=Pull guitars. It has no I.D. numbers. If someone has a rodding charts to share, it, would be helpful. Thank You

That's what they call pull-release.
The old student models.

i bet we'd like to see the topside. maybe it's just one of bruce's early models before he made an all pull model.

Chris, if it's Kansas City, it's after he started doing the all-pull. He started in Centralia, Missouri. I bet $3.00 this is the early student model

my 82 came from raytown.
you know more than i do, lane. that's a really nice looking steel. makes me want to be a student again, i guess.
i wish bruce had a pictorial on the history of zums.
the first one i saw was 70's..a little heavier build in the bellcrank area. then i went to see joe goldmark's which was really neat (at the townhouse in emeryville, ca.)
then i saw all the earlier randy beavers zums.
i bought mine largely due to the ads in steel guitarist mag. best decision i ever made.

price at the time was a big consideration.
so for $2400 i got this, a case and volume pedal..


then coming full circle i ended up back at the townhouse backing up rose maddox for a crazy weekend!

This also has long allen head tuning rods and not the current nylon. Thank's guys. The conflict is tuning the f# on string 4 with the C pedal. When in turn it does not let you use the eb lever.

The C pedal needs some slack on the 4th string
