Buck,
This guitar looks better every time I see it. As we discussed last week, I just bought a SD-10 Range Expander, and I now understand why knowledgeable players think so much of them and EMCIs. As a matter of fact, now that I have one Range Expander, I wouldn't mind having another or an EMCI. You shouldn't have any trouble selling it. I'm almost glad that it has one too many necks for me. Besides, if I bought another one right now I'd have to try harder to sell my MSA Classic. _________________ Hey, mister, how do you pedal that thing anyway?

Thanks Sonny and Jim
Sonny, It is the welded frame as this is the later 80's made MCI.
Jim
I agree it does look better every time. I just went up in the studio and it was still set up from yesterday when it was brought in. It really looked good sitting along with the mullen and Rains.
The MCI is set up a little different than i'm used to but it's kinday fun playing a different set up.
What does you MSA look like? I too don't play C6 so would consider a trade for a SD-10 in equal condition. _________________ Buck Hammock

Buck,
It the emerald green 1975 MSA Classic that you asked for pictures of during one of our email exchanges last week. It is a S-10, not a SD-10. On Thursday, I sent you two emails with 4 or 5 photos each. Your guitar doesn't look like it has been played much at all. My MSA is in very good condition, but since it has a wooden body, is quite a bit older than yours, and has been played, it is not in the same condition as yours. Structurally it is very sound, and it is still pretty. It just has some bar dings and some of the other normal wear that might be expected in a guitar of its type and age. The finish shows some natural fading. but there is no checking. The fretboard is really nice. Another forumite asked for photos a couple of weeks ago. After I sent them he replied, "What a beauty." I think he was being generous, but I appreciated the comment. I have owned the guitar since the mid '80s. I never gigged with it, but I am the third owner of whom I am aware. I keep it cleaned and lubed, and have never smoked. It has not been around pets. It's probably safe to say that it is in much better condition than most others of comparable age and use.
I hope this isn't TMI under the circumstances. Since you asked about it, I wanted to provide an honest overview.

Buck, that is a clever idea to put the dimensions in for the knee lever placements. Great looking guitar. stevet |

I'm gonna close this one for now.
Thanks all for looking and the inquiries. I've had a lot of emails on this guitar but no serious offers. I know the times are little tough out right now and understandable that $$$ are hard to come by.
I'm just gonna put this one in the case and let it sit in the studio till I feel it's the right time to bring it back out.
By the way Chris Ivey pointed out I had made a mistake in the Number of pedals. He is absolutly right. It is a 9 & 5 setup not and 8 & 5. Thanks Chris.
And Dennis, Thanks for the pic's and the SD-10 looks great......I think. The pic's you sent were to blurry to make heads or tails of anything (Except One). You might send me some serious pics and I'll take a look again. To bad you don't still have that SD-10 G2. _________________ Buck Hammock
