Thanks for the info, Tiny! I am dying to get it but am going to wait until the first week of April so I can fly up and pick it up in person. Tommy helped me buy that guitar in 1972 and gave me my first lessons so really look forward to a good visit.

Your Emmons
I wasn't going to post this as I didn't want to clutter up the thread with unhelpful info. I had my hands on that guitar once if only for a short time. There was a benefit being held in Pulaski at that veterans club by the 81 ramp. I was playing steel for Steve Woolson's bands. Country stuff. Someone brought your dad and his steel to the occasion. Your dad put on the legs and pedal rods and I lifted the guitar out of the case toted it over to the band area, and set it down next to my Carter D-10. He played the rest of the sets, and that was the last time I had my hands on an Emmons push pull
Equipment: Carter D10, Zum Stage1,
Wechter Scheernhorn Reso, Deneve Reso, Fender Jazzmaster, Martin D16, Walker Stereo Steel amp, TC Electronics M One effects unit, JBL 15" speaker cabs,Peavey Nashville 1000,Peavey Revoloution 112, Morrell Lap Steel, Boss DD3 delay,others

Re: Looking for Emmons Push/Pull - #1346
Still looking folks...
I'm trying to track down a guitar that belonged to my Dad and hoping that someone might be able to help.
It's an Emmons D-10 fat back with glossy rosewood mica, which he purchased new in 1970, Ser# 1346. Dad passed a few years ago and left the guitar to me. I had to sell it about 5 years ago to pay some medical bills and sold it to Mike Cass who restored it. I don't have any pics of the guitar after Mike restored it but I'm sure he did a great job.
I had hoped to find it mainly to know it's whereabouts and maybe even buy it back at some point.
It was the first Pedal Steel I ever played and didn't want to sell but had no choice.
If anyone can help me at least locate it, I would be very grateful! Thanks in advance!!
