Mark Farner was heavily criticized for using a Musicraft Messenger during his heyday with Grand Funk (1969-1971), by people who considered this guitar inferior to a Gibson or a Fender. He played a Messenger on all his albums up until Survival, then on E Pluribus Funk he played a white Gibson SG that Steve Marriot had sold him. Then, Farner had a Veleno to record Shinin' On in 1974.

You can add that Farner played a Microfrets extensively after he could not get anyone to refret his messenger due to the aluminum neck.

I've got a stereo Messenger guitar and gig with it often in my blues band, Mud Rooster. You can hear it being played through a '57 Fender Super in several RU-vid posts. One of my favorite guitars.

Mark Farner's guitar in Grand Funk Railroad. 👍

That's what I get for posting a comment before seeing the whole video, 😂

You are correct in that there is not much information about these guitars out there. I communicated with Mr. Casey's son about the company trying to build my knowledge and at least create a Wiki page about the brand. He knew a little bit but really wasn't interested. In the meantime, I've absorbed about all of the knowledge that exists on the web. How many Messengers were built, how many Magnas, what does the Al-Mag neck actually tune to (it's not 440), design flaws, various pickguards, bridges, control knobs, upper bout strap button positions, etc. Musicraft Messengers would have faded away into obscurity if not for Mark Farner.

@booitsnick Год назад

Mark Farner is god. I’d love to reverse engineer the fuzz circuit that came in these

@tommysaints8281 Год назад

They make a pedal at 4.53 in video

@daviddequasie6816 Год назад

Basic Audio makes a Messenger Fuzz. I helped with giving him some info since I have a Messenger guitar. He says that it is similar to having two Electro Harmonix LPB units.
