yes, i am considering selling or trading, but i must declare its mint EXCEPT the ABC (and maybe more) is NOT standard Derby (at least I have been told). what i am certain of is the ABC is in the first position(extreme left). if you have great flexing left ankle your OK i would guess, but not my left ankle.

as many know, it is a Derby lacquered transparent green with dual pearl inlay around body, PU off/on switch on right player side. Has a George L E66 PU and sounds really strong and big, not thin. it is a 3+5 Emmons set-up. The Derby works smoothing, tunes, stays in tune, sounds great and is absolutely beautiful and in new show room conddition (case also). It comes with a attachable volume pedal with a Good rich type appearnace (manufacturer not known by me, but looks like it came from Derby also). the only issue is the ABC position as stated. i know it can be resolved, but its a pain for me to get exact detailed info of what it was when it left the factory, what i have now and what is needed to put back to OEM (i'm sure it sounds like i'm 'over my head', but please understand one major concern of mine "is the long L center brace OEM or a discontinued version?".

if interested in buying or trading please contac time directly.

i may place a ZUMM order (1-2 years) or buy a used ZUMM similar to this Derby (after i verify its setup). trade?

thanks,

Billy
