Default Emerald Artisan X-20 Red **Sold**

I am putting this one back on the market after receiving an Emerald X7 Select Series from a fellow AGFer recently. I've never played a carbon fiber that I thought sounded better than this one, but the X7 better suits my needs for a travel instrument. The word is getting out on these Emeralds. This one hasn't gotten much playing time and is in what I would consider
Excellent +++ condition. Comes with embossed Hisox case in excellent condition as well.

1 3/4 nut
Shallow C profile
Action is fast and low
B-band pickup with on-board tuner
510 Gotoh tuners

A little Al Pettaway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxlmqB7ZoXw

This one is ready to go.


Got this one at a good price and will pass it along for the same. $1650.00 Shipped CONUS shipped shipped. Payment fees, if any, are responsibility of the buyer.

No trade offers please. Lots of references if you need them. Thanks for taking a look.

Thanks Andy! A little "back-on-the-market-pre-Thanksgiving" bump.

I like how they included the bevels! Seems like it would not be that hard to make nice rounded edges on CF guitars, but they are rare...

Plus one on what Andy said about this wonderful seller!

Best on this !

And a fine Thanksgiving to all

Cheers

Paul

Default Emerald X20

I've been enjoying my new Emerald X20 for about a month now. While mine has an L.R. Baggs Anthem system, I have previously owned an Emerald X-7 with the B-Band and found that system also worked quite well.

This one is offered at an attractive price. Someone in the market for a full size CF guitar would do well to snap this one up. Best with your sale.

Paul, Alan, and Doug: Thanks guys. The Emerald has drawn some interest, but still available on the day before Thanksgiving. Treat yourself--it's better than "turkey breast and stuffing...with gravy on the top..." Sorry Darrell Scott

Default Emerald testimonial

I’ve played virtually every carb fiber guitar out there. This Emerald is as warm and wooden as it gets. Frank is great guy too. Done several trades with him.
