Up for purchase is a beautiful example of Mosrite guitars from the 1970's.  This is a Mosrite Celebrity I in a Sunburst Tortoise Shell Pickguard.  After checking the pots, this guitar was made around 1972 and is all original.   The thing that sticks out about this guitar is the condition, the setup/playability, and the upgraded parts given to this guitar at the time of its make.  Please review the pictures.  The condition is great with only a few finish lines in the paint.  There are 2 main lines on the front of the guitar. One near the vibrato, and one near the pots. There is also a nice paint chip on the back/left part of the body. The playability and setup is excellent on this guitar.  The original frets are present with the beautiful binding still intact.  Plenty of life left in the frets, with no buzzing.  For how small the frets were when originally made, it's surprising there is still great fret size left. This guitar might have been a special production guitar at the time it was made, due to the vibrato, Grover tuners, and the beautiful tortoise shell pickguard.  The pickguard still has the original rubber stoppers under it to protect the finish. Either way, it was one of the better produced Mosrites at that time. Guitar comes with a non original hardshell case, but fits the guitar perfectly.  Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!
