Found a pic of one. It looks like a Special 130 preamp with a Nashville400 poweramp. I'd also guess that the speaker is different than the ones used in the 112 steel cabinets.

Bernie Watruba used to own a D11. It had 10 string spacing. He sold/traded the guitar. I saw it, possibly played it when he was living and playing in the Peoria,IL area sometime in the 80's.

My GFI is #0722 and Bob said it was finished on Aug.14 2002. I'm reading the serial number with it upside down, on a table,with the rear apron closest to me.Looks like it's 0686, so maybe a 2001

Michael,
That would be great information to have. It could be available as a "Sticky".

Maurice is the "A" in MSA.It is possible that it was his guitar. I would imagine at some point in his career, he would have played a double neck guitar. Iwould also imagine that your guitar would play well having been refurbished by Tom Bradshaw.

The first thing I noticed is that there are no cross shaft supports on the brace in the middle of the guitar.

If it is still assembled, it might be close to how it came from the factory,so take pictures of the bottom side of the changer, etc.

What Bill said. Plug a cable into the jacks on the back, preamp out/power amp in. Try the ones on the front panel,too.

I use my regular volume pedal going into the Axefx. If I were to use an expression pedal, I would probably put a volume block in front of the amp block so that it and the amp would work like an "analog" rig.

If you have a microphone stand, try wrapping the cable going to the amp around the mic stand 5 or 6 times and see if that helps. If not, try wrapping your amp power cord around the mic stand before plugging it in and see if that helps.

Thanks for the info Chris. I checked with my friend and he found something he’s going to use. The guitar is in rough shape and he’s not going to restore it, just play it as is.
