I picked up my new S12 MSA steel at the Texas Steel Show last weekend.
It is everything I imagined it to be😀
I wrote loads of emails to everybody, starting with Kyle Bennet, making sure the delivery schedule and other practical matters were right.
Then on to Mark Giles, getting the colour, type of wood and the inlays of the body just right. Wonderful job…👍
Finally, Mitchell Smithey who had the unenviable task of fitting 8 pedals and 7 knee levers on a single size body. In addition to answering about two dozen mails, he called me twice to make sure of some details.
Everybody wanted to make sure that everything would be just right, well beyond the call of duty.
Thank you very much guys!
Here’s the guitar in the afternoon Texas sunshine !
