While so many are working to revive Magic Sam, I’ve looked to the other outstanding templates from the period, and present for your enjoyment the Modern Mal, classic elements in a forward-looking package. An Aussie influenced outline, with the wide point behind center, creates a log that turns quickly in dicey situations. In addition, the straighter nose outline, coupled with an austere roll from nose to tail, rockets the Modern Mal forward when cross-stepping to the nose. The Modern Mal goes amazing in quick breaking beach breaks, but doesn’t shy away from reef or point surf.
