1975 S.L. MOSSMAN Flint Hills Acoustic Dreadnought Guitar. Condition is excellent. Shipping is a flat 0, USA Lower 48 Only. Local pickup is also available.
Great tone, beautiful condition, plays fantastic. Lovingly played and cared for, by me, over the course of twelve plus years, and ten years prior by an acquaintance. Full dynamic range, bright, deep and round. Professional neck reset performed in 2012 by the renowned Willies American Guitars in St. Paul, MN.
Mossman guitars are best known for their craftsmanship, high quality tonewoods and attention to detail from a period when major manufacturers were rushing production to meet the demand for acoustic guitars. Stuart Mossman built approximately 6,000 guitars between 1968 and 1984 and set the foundation for today’s generation of luthiers.
Mossman guitars have been played by several well known musicians including Eric Clapton, John Denver, Hank Snow, Albert Lee, Doc Watson, Cat Stevens, Merle Travis and David, Bobby and Keith Carradine, who can be seen in Robert Altman’s 1975 film “Nashville” playing his Oscar and Golden Globe winning song “I’m Easy” on his custom Mossman.
One of the hallmarks of the Mossman guitar is the paper label (image #11) bearing the number, model and initials of the craftsmen and Stuart Mossman himself.
As pictured (image #7, #8) the top of the guitar’s lacquer finish has crazing. This is very common on older acoustics and not a big deal as far as the guitar integrity is concerned. There is also one small surface ding as pictured (image #1) at lower right and some minor scuffs and scratches on the backside that aren’t even noticeable.
