You must have missed my Lefty LDG on page 5 (I think...). Your MSA is beautiful!

Paul, I sure did miss your beautiful lefty LDG. Man I wish I had one just like it. If you ever want to part with it, let me know. Just kidding, we are very protective of our backward instruments.

John, I purchased a Marlen S10 from Leonard in Reidsville, NC in the late 70's .. I think, it may have been early 80's, similar fancy design as your S12. That guitar had the best tone and sustain I have ever heard. However, the cabinet drop was noticable. How does yours handle the drop, or does it have any ?

Currently my "main squeeze" - although I do play my "Sneakycaster" modified 400 (B6 9+2) and GFI Ultra (B6 3+4) often. Back neck is B6 8 pedals, no knees (yet) - front neck is an open SS tuning. Tonewise it's a pedal steel version of a Les Paul on steroids - big, round, thick, fat; those who think Fenders have a thin tone must be listening to old recordings where they were recorded with a ton of highs - none of mine sound thin in the least:
