The owner of this guitar has given me permission to post pics of his guitar so I will do it within a couple of days.
I will do it in a fresh thread though, as this thread was hijacked.

Thru pictures, Reece has concluded that the guitar I'm working on is a really advanced copy of a seventies MSA Classic as far as workmanship goes. It is a crossbreed between a real MSA and a pull/rele ...

Very fast answer, thank you!
I am a MSA owner but this particular one is only in for service. Is it possible to narrow down to a couple of years within it is made? 1970 - 72?

Got a really early pull-release MSA on my workbench. Haven't seen anything like it before. The serial is 1S127. Got any info about year and number och pedals and knees?

Thanks
Mathias

I have a 70's student model with a really outdated pull/release system. It is very easy to make though and it sound really good. It came with one knee but when I bought it some part where missing. A c ...

Thanks Larry and Bill for your comments! And yes, it plays GREAT! Very Happy

Gary, the brass bushings are the originals only polished. They can be bought from Wayne Link at Linkon pedal steels in Canada ...

Thanks guys for really nice and kind comments!

Darvin, yes it's a SS, 80-something. I think I've gotten the setup pretty good cause it plays and sounds great!! Your amazingly good lookin SS was a b ...

Alan, I borrowed your style of headline in a new thread with pictures of my MSA-restoration. I hope it is OK!

A few pics of my latest restoration. I bought it really cheap since the former owner had gotten tired of the fact that the strings never returned to the right pitch after engaging pedals. I soon found ...

Wow, you've got some polishing to do there! Looks like a fun project. I get a little jealous since I'm all dried out on projects right now.

I might also be interested. Good luck with your work shop constructing!

My guitar has been refinished by some former owner. Now it's blue with a clearcoat that is loosening so I have to refinish it again.

Thank you Chris! I looked his site up, found only one MSA decal but I will email him, maybe he has some more that aren't on the site.

As the subject, who can I contact to get a hold of some stripes and decals for my MSA? Fingerboard for MSA is also intresting.
Thanks!

Thanks for your answers! The guitar was originally red so that would be an obvious good choice. But i'm not very fond of red guitars.. eventhough yours looks delicious, Bryan! http://steelguitarforum ...

Thanks for your suggestion Colby. That would be nice indeed... A dark brown see-through would be nice too if the wood's got a nice grain

Sure, I just managed to get some server space for a pic. The aluminium necks aren't original but some kind of aftermarket replacements. My idea is to polish them.

Hi!

I recently bought an MSA D-10 SS and it will be the second MSA to be renovated by me. The last one was a black Mica with a nice finish, but this one is lacquer and needs a re-finish.

I'm not sur ...

Thanks Donny!

Thank you Reece for an early christmas present! Which years were these made? One could guess it was born somewhere around '80, right?

Thanks again. I got it really cheap so I don't mind the aftermark ...

Hi

I'm about to buy an MSA D10 with serial 2C 6254. I would really appritiate to know what model and year it is. And also, was this guitar equipped with aluminum necks original?

Thanks!

Casey and Charlie, thank you for your kind words http://steelguitarforum.com/smile.gif

Mine is actually pretty good sounding, a little special. I'm sure it could be better with som care and maybe a better pickup.
