Bill,
It's always good to hear about someone getting a second chance :) Glad to
know you are reunited with that MA6 sound. I'll use your experience and
subsequent wisdom to remind myself not to part with mine in the first place!
Best,
Andy

Subject: [RESOGUIT-L] I guess you could say I'm a Beard man
Just picked up my 4th Beard. I stupidly sold my six string MA a while ago
and have been kicking myself ever since. About 6 months ago I treated myself
to a MA 8 that Mike himself picked out and it was and is an amazing
instrument. Then I took the plunge about a month ago and picked up a
Road-o-phonic - an instrument that the Beard folks have been marketing
wrong. Instead of a good travel guitar, it is actually one of the finest lap
steels I've played. I had an order for a MA6 with Mike but it looked like I
was going to have to forget it - my cash was needed elsewhere and it looked
like it was going to be a while before the new Beards were going to be ready
and my cash was going to be available. I sadly postponed my order with Mike.
And then, a miracle: I sold one resonator just as a used MA came on the
market for about the same amount. I sent off the old dobro yesterday and
just picked up the new (used) MA 6 a few hours ago. What a monster guitar.
It feels so good to have an MA6 again. They look pretty all lined up.
I played a Clinesmith as well today for the first time. Very nice, even
tone. Beautiful workmanship. But nothing compares to the MA's.
Unbelievable guitars.
