Greg, I really do appreciate your response. Thank you!!! I'm so glad that you included the link. The pictures, and info, are very informative. I read it, as the saying goes, "from kiver to kiver"

The reason I wanted to know the weight of the MSA is that I have a Bobby Bowman D-10 which I think to be one of, if not the best, steel I have owned in my 70+ years playing steel. It is very well built and I thought to be a bit heavy but it only weighs about a pound more than the MSA. Mike, you're absolutely right. There must be some reason for the weight change between age 60 and 93.

Well in as much as I hate to pick it up to move, it does sound great so if the weight has contributed to that somehow I can put up with it!
