Simply stunning Danny. I don't know where Mark Giles keeps getting his timber from, but he seems to have an endless supply to make these exquisite bodies. Without doubt, MSA are at the top of the tree from a mechanical and finish point of view. I know that I give McMiser some friendly banter about his MSA, but you cannot beat the workmanship which is truly phenomenal. 'Mr Mullen' Mickey Adams must have been made an offer he couldn't refuse to prise him away from the Mullen company. :lol:

Yes I quite agree Ken, superb engineering and as far as I know they are the only guitar you can adjust all to you liking from the seat, even the pedal rods
But in my humble opinion way too expensive, I know I will get slaughtered by Malcolm for this, but I would not part with my Mullen for two MSAs

Well you get a great tone from your Mullen Willie. Must be in the hands 'cause I couldn't get my Mullen to sound as good as yours when I had one. That's why I sold it. :o

Actually Willie, I have just checked out the prices from the MSA and Mullen web sites, and the Mullen G2 is on a par price wise with the MSA Legend D10 that Mickey Adams is showing off in this clip. However, Mullen charge extra for what they call a 'polished package' which is the knee levers and floor pedals polished, which comes as standard on most other makes of guitar including MSA. :o
