Thanks to All for your Interest!UPDATENOTE: While polishing the guitar I found a Very Minor Straight Grain Split onthe Edge of the Back right near the curve of the Waist. I did the “Light Test”and the split Does NOT Go Through. It is NOT a Crack. And I couldn’t even getmy thinner than paper .0025 feeler gauge into this “split”.... It is a Non-Issuethat needed to be addressed. Nobody likes surprises and I pride myself on“delivering the goods”...I was in a hurry and have had this guitar so long Ididn’t take my time to go over it, and I apologize for any confusion orinconvenience. Please see the NEW PIC I posted. By the way, you will see someof the Quilt in the Mahogany In this Pic. I forgot to mention the RibbonMahogany Back has nice light consistent Quilting from Top to Bottom. Thank YouAll for your interest.Thisis my Vintage 1976 Mossman Tennessee Flat Top #2325. In Very Good to Excellentcondition with the Original Ess & Ess Hardcase, also in ExcellentCondition. Made in Winfield, Kansas, U.S.A.by Stuart Mossman and Friends. Plays and sounds GREAT! She’s Very Loud and theTone is Rich and Full and She also Records Great. The action is mediummeasuring 7/64ths on the Low E string, 12th fret. No Heavy lacquer Checking.Just VERY Light Checking on the Top Consistent with Any Nitro finished guitarthis old. Wouldn’t show in pics. The Frets only show wear on the 1st-6th fretsat the 1st (E) and 2nd (B) Strings ONLY. And after looking closely at theFrets, I’d say it probably had a Re-Fret a while back during it’s lifetimebefore me. I’m definitely No Expert and She plays just Fine, I just thought I’dmention it. This guitar has only 9 sets of initials, including Mossman’s, on theLabel. These Initials are of each person who was involved in the Build, and thecount is low due to a Major Fire reducing output at this time in Production.Obviously Stuart would keep his Best Craftsmen working during these slow, toughTimes. And because there are Less people building each Guitar, this would haveraised Quality Control to a Very High Level. And a Design Change to the NeckJoint was implemented during this time so this Mossman Does NOT suffer from thesinking Neck Joint known as the “Agony of DaFeet”. This Mossman has theImproved Neck Joint with 2 Finely Scalloped Cross Braces under theFretboard Extension and The Top looks nice and straight all around theFretboard Extension. And of course, No Cracks. The Nut is made of Ebony Wood(Old School). The pickguard is a little loose near the bottom but does not getin the way when playing this Beauty (see pics). It stays down if pressed for alittle bit and can be secured with the right adhesive. The finish is in greatshape except for several dings and minor scratches that come with a 43 year oldguitar. The Mahogany square that covers the Neck Bolts inside the guitar wasremoved before I bought the guitar. This “cover” came off in 3 pieces that fittogether perfectly so it can be put back on and is included. It’s just there toHide the Neck Bolts and serves no functional purpose. I put in a set of TaylorEbony Bridge Pins after the 1st string change. The worn Black Pins it came withare also included, along with the case key in the envelope.
