Hi, I am a new member in the UK.I have a MSA 12 string 'Classic' pedal steel. Single on double body with pad. stained green body.When purchased from EBay (USA) the ad read aluminium neck made by Jim Boen of MSA. 3 pedals and 4 knees.How might I find out how old it might be ???The only serial no. I can find is 'Excaliber 2C6016'.I have a problem with the pickup,low end hum,and little response frome the high G sharp string ??If anyone has a MSA pickup that might fit and is for sale, I am going to be in New York next week.Any help would be greatly appriciated.regards STUART

Stuart-If you have the MSA Excaliber model that I tried out at the factory in Dallas back When Chuck Wright worked there, You might have one of the lightweight models. The one I tried was a S14. I would have liked to buy that one.....al

| Stuart, you didn't say what gauge string you are using for the G#. A heavier gauge string will sound louder and fuller. A .011, .0115 or .012 should work. A .010 sounds weak and shallow to me. |

| Hey Stuart, I just saw on e-bay a pair of MSA Super Sustain 12 string pickups. Might be what you are looking for. Good luck with the guitar. Larry J. |
