Any help with older MSA serial number?

[Rex Mayfield]

I just bought an older MSA S12 Ext. E9. Just curious where to look for info on the year model, etc. Serial number is 1c-120. Thanks guys!

If you post some pictures, we could tell you a lot about it.

Great! Thanks Carl & Mike. I'll try to get some pics up in while, and look up the website. I'll also be asking for opinions on set-up changes shortly after I get my tiny brain wrapped around what I'm getting into. I'm somewhat a newby E9 10 string guy exploring other options. Rex

Send an e-mail with details on your guitar to ...
Mitchell Smithey - mitchell@msapedalsteels.com

or

Kyle Bennett - kyle@msapedalsteels.com

They have records of every guitar and can tell you when it was made, who assembled and inspected it, and where or who originally purchased it.

My first 'real' steel guitar was a 1974 MSA D-10 Classic originally sold to Chicago Musical Instruments, and they had all the info.

Check out their new WebSite while you're at it...

Thank you very much, David. Will do!

Rex,
Our records indicate that MSA serial number 1c-120 was manufactured February 18, 1972 for Manny's Music. This is the only information we have regarding this guitar.

Great! Thank you Kyle. That's all I needed! Have a happy new year! Rex
