Many have seen my posts on this steel. I bought it on ebay at a good price, but the owner neglected to tell me that the blue stain had competely faded out. It is gone to almost natural maple with some darkening.
I was going to refinish it and use it on gigs alternating with my Carter, but now I have started to think I don't feel up to the task.. I DO NOT like refinishing things!! It is not something I do well. This is a 3+4 S 10.. and mechanically is perfect!.. It seems to have been played VERY little. NO wear on pedals etc. The undercarriage is SPOTLESS!..
I think it was setup someplace and just allowed to sit while the stain faded. It is real nice MSA Classic .. Maple body with SuperSustain pickup and aluminum neck pocket.. NO scratches on any of the aluminum parts,,Has some nicks in the clear lacquer on the front apron....I am going to spend a bit more money and buy something different.. I played MSA guitars most of my life, this is my fourth,and is just as good as all the others,but I am going to try something different this time like a BMI maybe..anyway,if you can use it... I'll let it go for $925 shipped.. that is what I paid for it... [This message was edited by Bob Carlucci on 10 March 2005 at 06:46 AM.]
