2000 Mossman Custom Dreadnaught Guitar

(Serial No. 0018018) Excellent condition. Built in Texas, this guitar upholds the reputation of the Kansas built guitars. Top wood was reclaimed from the old pecan trees that were harvested from the grounds of the Texas state capital building in Austin, Texas. It has flamed Santos mahogany sides, and a three piece back of Santos mahogany with a black walnut inside wedge. The body is just slightly smaller than a dreadnaught, with a 14 1/4 inch lower bout and a 10 1/4 inch upper bout. Scale length is the usual dreadnaught scale at 25 1/2 inches. The bone nut is 1 11/16 inch. Neck is straight and in set, frets are fine. Luthier Jack Dillen just reset the neck and dressed the frets, so the action is low and comfortable with room to lower the saddle if desired. Fretboard and bridge are rosewood.
