MSA Millennium

Post by Sam Lewis »

A number of years ago I was at Ronnie's Guitar Store in Hot Springs for a Guitar Show. One of the players, I believe it was Junior Knight (??????) had a new Black Millennium. Most beautiful steel I had ever seen until my blue one. Now I'm too old to play it -(I thought I could) - so I must let it go. The pictures will not do it justice for it is absolutely perfect new. There is so much beautiful music in the guitar and all it needs is some guitar-loving player. I'm asking $6500.00 and we will talk about transportation.

How many levers?
Pedal steel, lap steel, resonator, blues harp - why suck at just one instrument when you can do so on many?

Thank you, coming from you means a lot. Yes, it is basically "unplayed". I was almost to the point of taping my bar and picks to my hand so I wouldn't drop them and put a ding on the guitar. Almost!

Bill, thanks for asking. I tried to get as much history from MSA as I could and they told me it was built August, 2002. While I am answering your question I'll try to answer some others.

Body is Carbon Composit Technology (Very strong but light)
Pickups quick change
Snap on pedal board
No polished material -- all chrome
Pedal height adjustable sitting at the guitar
Not one blemish, period

Price Reduction

Post by Sam Lewis »

I want some deserving steel player that will appreciate, and play, this beautiful instrument so I am lowering the price to $5,500.00 where it stays. The guitar is as perfect as when it came from the factory, or more so.

Thank you, Daniel, the pictures cannot do it justice. I'm sitting in front of it now an d I'm still having a hard time believing that a guitar built 21 years ago could still be
as clean and blemish free as this guitar is. No sales pitch, just facts.

Really sharp guitar, beautiful color!! If you tried to buy anything from MSA now the waiting list would be upwards around two years and the price would be several thousand higher too. So a really positive incentive is that there is no waiting on this one and it looks as good as a new one. I'm Just plugging this guitar because I own an MSA and I really think MSA guitars are state of the art if not ahead of their time. Best of luck Sam!! Too bad you have to part with it, I'm sure its painful but hang in there, someone has to be considering this guitar. You strike me as a man of great integrity which should ease any buyer's purchasing concerns!!
