There are so many beautiful guitars out there today,but I thing the old Sho-Buds are are hard to beat,One of the most beautiful guitars I ever owned was a LDG with a burgundy finish,Traded it appro.25 years ago for a MSA d-10.Kind of weird,saw this guitar last week on a DVD being played by the same guy I traded it to.First time I had seen her in all these years,and she was still PRETTY. |

Although I personally don't think the l©©ks effect the sound (consiously) I have always ordered my guitars finished in the color~scheme of my own choice! It's kinda amusing though! I've owned at least 20-NEW PSG's since ’57 and I've always wanted a BURGUNDY colored guitar, but; never had one until my latest Derby of 12/05! I'm a happy~camper now, but; it's the guitar itself, not the color! The color was just the finishing~touch!------------------

JMO, however; the late ‘Jeff Newman’ had some of the fanciest/wildest finishes on his guitars, but; it didn't interfer with his playing none! R.I.P.!------------------

As the old song "I don't get around much any more" goes,i have not seen a MSA Millennium yet.But i bet they look as good from the players side as they do from the front.I remember over 30 years go Reece Anderson was just as concerned about how nice the MSA looked from the players side.
So i would have to say looks were just as important back then.Tracy |
