On Sept.17th 2011, the new MSA will celebrate it’s 10 year anniversary.
All of us at MSA would like to take this opportunity to express our most sincere appreciation to the many thousands of people around the world who since 1964 have supported, owned, or who still today play an MSA.
We have always considered our relationship with supporters, customers and friends as an exceptional “partnership”. Our continued commitment to quality, innovation, and our valued customers, both past and present, will always remain our highest priorities.
As we move forward we want to assure each of you we will continually raise the bar for ourselves, while offering new and exciting design and innovations in the future.
In sincere appreciation and gratitude ! |

I have made only a few really good decisions in my life. But I did make some. One was taking up the study of the pedal steel guitar back in 1979. Another was buying 2 MSAs at that time. (One immediately, and the other 2 years later) And a third was buying my 2 Millenniums.
There are a lot of great steels on the market today, but I doubt that there is anything better. I plan to play MSA steel guitars as long as I live.

Congratulations and wishes for MSA's continued success, Reece.
Those sure are pretty steels, Mike, and I know they are as mechanically sound as any made. The really look sweet, both on top and underneath. _________________ HagFan

I want to add 2 things to my previous post:
1- Congratilations to Reece and Kyle and Johnny and David Wright and everybody else at MSA.
and 2- Thank you for building the best steels in the world. (And especially you Johnny for building my 2 Millenniums and designing the wrist lever for me.)
My new signature says it all.
P.S. Ron, they ARE pretty on the outside, but the their real beauty is "under the hood." I believe MSA is the best engineered steel in existence. _________________ Please visit my web site and Soundcloud page and listen to the music posted there.

happy birthday MSA! There is no other steel like the great MSA Millenium M3! Stays in tune for a lifetime! I just love it!
A little note:
Mr. Johnny Cox, I have no idea why you're putting you a way down... I STRONGLY belief... my M3 would be not the same without you! I really belief YOU are the person who puts the great magic in that instrument! Even there is a small change to meet ya again... but I thank you my lifetime for what you put in my M3..... Thanks ALOT!!! ![Winking](images/smiles/icon_winking.gif) |

I cut my "steel teeth" on a white-tidewood, U12, Classic, back in 1973. It had your E9/Bb6th tuning on it and I played that guitar for many, many, years. What a great guitar that was!!
I've been partial to MSAs ever since...and have a "The Universal" U12 in my stable at present.
Many thanks and congratulations on your anniversary, Reece. You and your teams of workers have a legacy of which you can be quite proud. May you all have many more years of success. _________________ Best regards,
Mike |

Congratulations Mr. Anderson on your celebration. I play a single 10 white MSA. Have a white D10 under the bed just for a spare. I love the way they play and I have not had a problem with my S10 in 10 years of playing. Best of luck on the next 10. |

Reece-Congratulations-I'm still enjoying my M2 Millenium D-10 that I bought (new) from you some years ago. There has been talk here on the S.G.F. that M.S.A. will no longer be producing Millenium models due to the high cost of materials.
Will you comment if that's the truth
Also, will parts and service still be available
The reason I ask is because I have a dent in my pedal rack and I'm also thinking that my extra L.K.L. on the C6th neck would work better for me if it could be moved over to a L.K.R. instead.
Thank you Sir!
