MMB TEST 001 08 - was originally sold to a guy in Wrington, Bristol. I have a record of the sale.
A while ago I posted that MMB TEST 001 08's original owner was blues musician Ian Seigal. That is not correct, Ian's guitar was MMB TEST 003

Nice looking guitar. I was going to refinish one of my MM's to a Rory Gallagher distressed faux wood finish but haven't got round to it yet. 🎸🎸
We all know Michael's guitars hold their value well, this one seems to be about to set a new benchmark!
Best wishes to you all, John

Chris, the guitar was not reliced, but it didn't have a glossy nickel plated finish. It looked slightly reliced, but not how it is now. I think this is me playing that guitar when I first got it. Notice that the headstock wasn't stamped with MICHAEL MESSER BLUES at this time. We had a stamp made for the first batch and did them ourselves. The guitar is stamped in the sale photos, so I'm guessing that was done when we sold it.  Shine On Michael  |
