Sold on Reverb. Thanks anyway.



2700+ Time to go...

This guitar is loaded, see the copedent. Emmons setup E’s on left. There is a Zero pedal.
Pedal 5 is shared on E9 dropping 3 and 6 a half tone for an open minor chord.
C6 pedals 5-9 standard setup. 5 KLs on each neck. There is also a coil tap for each
Geo L pickup to brighten and darken tone. I replaced the factory knobs (included) with larger diameter chicken heads.
Road case.

Supposedly built for Rob Parker. I did extensive clean up
of gummed lube throughout the guitar including a rebuild of the tuning keys.
Also all new Delrin couplers, and 1” lift to clear the vertical knee levers,
which are 25” to ground (rear apron is 27”). This guitar has cabinet drop that requires sweetened tuning.
It could use a couple compensators.

Still, its not as heavy as many 4 kl guitars, 65 lbs in the case. I have a set of alloy legs for 150 more, which removes 4+ lbs.
I may regret parting with this guitar but Ive been in PSGAS denial and something has got to go.

Hi, been playing PSG for a few years now but I still cant figure out what Cabinet Drop is? Does it mean that the body flexes when you push down a pedal? making the guitar go out of tuen? Question

Exactly, sort of. Not out of tune but detuned across all strings.

Yes the minute change in pitch of static string(s) caused by the extra stress on the entire setup when stretching other strings. Not nec the cabinet itself.

All guitars have some, this one worse than others so you tune the vulnerable static strings a little bit sharp, it sweetens right up.
