Wrong again Mr McMaster. The thief of my gear was looking for suitable firewood one winter. He discarded my Sho~Bud because it was known to be treated with anti-flammatory liquid, and because it was immediately recognisable as a valuable and traceable musical instrument (unlike the MSA). What he was looking for was the mass produced, highly flammable and combustible MSA guitar. After nicking a dozen of them, it took just 2 minutes for him to get a blazing fire going, and the plywood and plastic MSA's kept him warm all evening. These MSA's found a most suitable and appropriate end of their lives as firewood. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Don't let anyone smoke in the same room as your guitar Mr M, as you have seen the results of the vulnerability and health & safety issues that owning an MSA carries. :o

Mr Greenwood took a huge financial hit when he sold his tupperware guitar - the depreciation was eye watering. I'll give you a generous 5 Italian Lira for your SD10, because Christmas is coming and I need some fuel for the fire. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Don't be too smug Mr Mac. A bug has been found that can eat plastic!!! http://www.bbc.com/future/story/2013032 ... eating-bug :o :o :o

Here is the originator of the MSA guitar, one Phineas Taylor Barnum. Mr Barnum is widely accredited for uttering the phrase - "There's a sucker born every minute!". Thus the empire of MSA was born, and that phrase was the foundation of MSA's business plan. :lol:

For those readers who think Mr BING and I don't like each other, WRONG-- he is actually quite nice, just a little deranged, but we all love eccentrics. :lol: :lol: :lol:
