Johnny Cox - - - - I had no idea

Post by Tony Orth »

My wife and I decided to get out of town this weekend so we drove up to Nashville, Indiana (Brown County) to the craft shops.
We decided to hit the Little Opry House show on Saturday night. Connie Smith was in town.
I had no idea of the treat I was in for!

Low and behold, there you are, Johnny Cox, with your new MSA Millenium. Now Connie Smith is gorgeous, but that Millenium is a close second.

Thanks for the great show and some first-rate pickin'. I was in awe from the first note to the last.
Just wanted you to know there was a forum-ite in the audience. (we're everywhere)

Best Wishes
Tony

Tony, thank you so much for those kind words. Connie is a joy to work with. She is a steel player's dream artist. The folks at Little Nashville are great to work with also. I have played there with several artist over the years and it is always a treat for me. The Millennium also makes playing a pleasure, knowing the guitar will do it's job makes for an easy show. Thanks for allowing us to share your evening.

Gary, I don't like to compare brand of guitar to another simply because they all have their good points. I will tell you that I love my new MSA Millennium. It has a great sound, plays great and stays in tune. It looks great and only weighs 39 pounds with 9&8. It has some wonderful features that none of the other brands have. Check it out at the MSA web site link below.
