The black legs will take some getting used to.

I really like the way you can adjust pedal height while sitting.

Less than 30 pounds. Thats definetly lighter than their old ones. I used to have a single neck that I know had to weigh 100lbs, at least it felt like it. Life Savings? I'm sure you can finance it at an affordable 19% interest rate over 5-10 years. I am anxious to hear one.

It sure is a nice looking machine! Does anyone know what they are going to cost? Also, are they going to make a SD-10? In any case, impressive I have to say.

Del,
The Millennium SD-10 is available now. The arm rest is customed stitched. It's very nice. The price will be available on our web-site Saturday.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Kyle Bennett on 13 June 2002 at 07:40 PM.]</p></FONT>

Slide in pickups. cool. Is it something most pickup brands fit into ? if so, thats a great idea. I think they look sharp.

I really liked the 3D Frets. Other colors? I would just stay with black. To paraphrase Mr. Ford, "You can have any color you want, so long as it is black." What other color would be appropriate for a carbon fiber guitar? Absolutely gorgeous! I'm afraid to find out what the price will be, though.

Well Reese that`s an awsome looking steel. Love the black leg`s, daring but in good taste. Welcome back into the sales industry, but could you make that steel lighter? [JUST KIDDING]

I'm not saying I don't like the black legs.
It's just striking how much of a difference they make. If I were to get a new one that would be a difficult decision, black or chrome.

I started with an MSA Classic. It was a great guitar. All the reasons I didn't keep it are now resolved, and more.

Thanks MSA! <FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Joey Ace on 14 June 2002 at 04:53 AM.]</p></FONT>

The pedal rod adjustment is too cool!
The guitar is available with chrome legs...good! Is it available with chrome pedal bar? I have got to play one of these.... way cool. Not what I expected to see from the discussions I'd read.

I looked through the photos and WOW!!! I'm impressed, doesn't look like a single detail was missed. That undercarriage is gorgeous and you have to love the pedal height adjusters. Incredible job MSA. I wish there was some way I could see one in person but alas....

Fantastic Job, Kyle, Jerry and Reece!!
I will fly down next week to see and hear it in person. I hope the waiting list is such that I could get one this year, an S12 that is. If that MSA plays as good as it looks, you have a winner!!

...great looking instrument. I hope you sell a million. Image I can appreciate the work, getting to this point.

Right now, the legs and pedalboard seem to detract from it's beauty; but that may just take some "getting use to".

Congratulations to all involved for taking the lead on the carbon fiber construction for steel guitar manufacturing.

Black legs or chrome, it looks like a beautiful steel to me! The pedal height adjustment feature, not only a nicely designed operation, also has some personality, a characteristic you don't often see on an undercarriage.

It says "Use me. I'm here to help." I like that in an undercarriage part. Image

Also, the raised graphic fretboards, a` la Bigsby but very contemporary looking, is a way cool cosmetic feature, again showing personality.

I can see that this is no "bargain basement" guitar. This puppy is seeking the Lexus lovers out there. Image
