I am now the owner of an MSA Classic D12 with 8 and 4....well, most of one, at least. Somewhere along the way, the legs, pedal bar, pedals, pedal rods and case got separated from the guitar and, by now, are long gone.
I see that I can buy legs, pedal rods and couplers without much trouble, but not much luck with pedals, so far. I have access to a machine shop, so I can make the pedal bar and pedal bracket mounts myself.

Therefore, my questions so far are:
1. What length legs should I buy for this guitar. I'm 5'11”.
2. Where might I buy some pedals? (Cool Since I am making my own bar and mounts, I assume I can make nearly any brand of pedal work? Does anyone know if any current manufacturers would sell me new pedals? Does anyone have some pedals to sell?

Thanks!

Deane, I have 4 pedals and brackets from a Desert Rose
Guitar. They would be easily mounted to a pedal bar. Like new condition. 20.00 a piece. I also have 2 Carter pedals late model that would need brackets built. 20.00 a piece also. I can send pictures if you send me an email address. Kenneth

Standard legs are 26". Have you contacted MSA? They would probably sell you new pedals and a rack, but you would probably pay a lot more than if you were just patient here.

Do a google image search, you'll find lots of pictures of the originals and how the whole system is mounted. The rack is just a piece of 2"x1"x1/8" channel. If you have access to a mill and know how to use it you could easily make your own pedals too.
