| Hey guys just acquired a d-10 msa basket case. What I need help with in order to restore it as close as I can is some pics of the under carriage. Like I said it is a basket case. I've built some single necks but I don't know what all is in the under carriage so some pics would really be helpful. Thanks a lot ...Dan Auldridge. |

What model is your MSA? I have a pretty clean MSA classic that I could send you pics of. I'm not sure if they changed the undercarriage through the years.

It's a '73 or '74 Bud Carter classic most likely. I got
1C1389 -'73 single.

No, as far as I can figure, it's most likely now an early Classic SD10 with a bunch of extra pieces. It was a D10 originally, then converted to an SD10, and now you've (maybe) got all the pieces to convert it back to a D10?
Anyhow, it was originally built as a white tidewood D10, in 1973.

I'd only do that if you felt the need. It won't change the value a lot.
If you have lots of parts, I'd probably do 4 or 5 pedals and a 5th knee.

I can't tell you what to do with it, that's totally up to you. The guitar started out as a double-neck Classic, though (that's what the 2C on the serial number means). It had already had the C6th neck removed when it sold on ebay, back in 2010. |
