He was for me the first person I noticed that sold high quality coins and machine made apparatus such as this Salt Pours and other apparatus.  Presley started with solid blocks of brass for each salt pour. He came up with that iconic look (that for those that know immediately recognize it as Presley's).  But beyond that he was able to apply a flesh color that was spot on for what he was attempting. It was baked on and whatever process he used beyond that so that it sealed that color way back then incredible even today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor years and years different craftsman would come up with their own versions like \u003cstrong\u003eJoe Porper \u003c\/strong\u003eand our good friend \u003cstrong\u003ePaul Kozak. \u003c\/strong\u003e In fact Paul's salt pour was in my opinion the 2nd most popular and requested version.  But it is an undisputed fact that the Long Salt Pour from \u003cstrong\u003ePresley Guitar remains the Champion of the world. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e Very Fine never used. No instructions are included.  Comes with a small container of pop corn salt which is what you want \"if\" you're going to use it.  But THAT is the tough question! To use or not to use and keep in the same pristine shape as a collectible.  Only you can answer that question!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eImportant:\u003c\/span\u003e The image where the apparatus is placed upside down it appears there is in indentation but that is not the case. There are no indentations at all.  It's just he light reflection off the unit.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/span\u003e Wrapped in chem free plate paper, with lighter adhesive tape leaving excess slack at both ends (which is where the cut line should be to open the unit on either side) and then wrapped in bubble  wrap with appropriate marking\/stickers. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stevens Magic Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67983434645556,"sku":null,"price":365.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0632\/1461\/6628\/files\/Long_Salt_Pour_Presley_Guitar.png?v=1794281617","url":"https:\/\/stevensmagic.com\/products\/okito-box-joe-stevens-estate-copy-1","provider":"Stevens Magic Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
