If it's the same one I just saw at the Dallas show, it's a real pretty brown S12, 3 floor pedals - 4 knees<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Dyke Corson on 04 March 2005 at 10:12 AM.]</p></FONT>

Yes, this is the same steel at the show. Excellent + condition. Has volume & tone controls. Also built in distortion.

This guitar has not been played for years, and yes, it's a pretty guitar.

Hi Larry, please send me an email with HiRes pictures. Are there no decals on the frontside wood? Is it refinished? Thanks, Joerg

I recently saw this guitar at Larry and Phyllis's home, and it's an exceptionally clean and original guitar.

Larry is one you can trust to always be truthful. If he told me the world was flat, I wouldn't leave home.

Those MSA wood body guitars were some of the best ones the old MSA Micro made. I have had more than one of them and always liked them.....al Image Image Image

I was wondering, I can't really make it out... How many knees, looks like 4 and about how much does it weigh in the case?
Thanks, Duncan<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Duncan Hodge on 31 May 2005 at 09:50 PM.]</p></FONT>
