Legends and Studio Pro guitars will continue. No plans to replace the Millennium as of now. MSA may produce the Millennium again in the future as well.

As i have posted before i got my MSA D10 in the early 70s and played it on and off the road for 30 plus years. After retiring i sold it to a friend near here and he is still using it on his jobs.
It is a little heavy compaired to todays steels but you can't have everything. I never had one minute of trouble with it over the years and it will probably out last the friend i sold it to.
I have no dog in the tone.looks,ect, ect, ect.fights.Only telling it the way it was and is. Tracy |

Johnny,
Just wondering why there isn't a posting on the discontinuance of the carbon-fiber body on the MSA site? Both the Legend and the Studio Pro look sharp, just trying to save up the cash to get one or the other. |

I'm sure some folks will spit when they read this  but in April I got a Red Baron. 3 pedals and one knee is enough for now - it showed up when I decided to PSG just like my first fiddle showed up last year when I wanted to play. After 6 months I moved up to a five-string fiddle, and after 6 months I might move up to a U12 but for now the Red Baron is cool. My fiddle teacher tried it in exasperation and I enjoy improvising (to his amazement BTW) but soon I should try the tabs in my Winnie Winston. (Also thanks for the post elsewhere that reminded me not to tune the raise with the wrench, but the key instead! I was all fouled up for a while...) The carbon Millenium sounds like a great idea, but there are fan players on every brand it seems. I asked a local player about tuning etc and he said the balsa thing belonged on the junk heap, but it does the job and I can carry it (I'm getting a case made) for now. MSA Red Baron - it ain't for everybody, but it sings for me. |

Alfred, check out the thread about an MSA for sale in the Instruments For sale section.
Somebody is going to get a great deal.

| I love everything about my MSA SD-10 Studio Pro. Kyle did an outstanding job custom painting it for me. It is so nice to be able to raise or lower your pedal height and adjust your knee levers without any tools and changing pickups is a snap. Great instrument. |

I agree, but my favorite special feature (which I didn't anticipate at all) is the 3-D fretboard. There is something very satisfying about it. It's a very subtle thing though, and you don't notice it until you are used to it and then play a different guitar with a flat one.

| It seems odd that no one has mentioned the five year warranty. It is something that no other manufacturer offers. Dale |

My guess is that it's worth around $1,300 or $1,400.
This low price has nothing to do with the quality of the guitar, but is reflective of the fact that there are so many of these guitars floating around. It's the law of supply and demand, and it's a buyer's market.
Those old MSAs are the best guitars you can buy for the least amount of money.
Given the excellent quality of the guitar, and the relatively low price it would fetch, you might want to keep it.
