The Maphis model is built using a soild block of walnut routed from the front capped with a solid 3\/4\" thick carved piece of spruce�this is a thin but fully hollow guitar. The other fittings are standard Mosrite including the \"Moseley\" vibrato tailpiece, adjustable bridge, black-plastic covered pickups, and slim neck with super fast action. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJoe Maphis was Moseley's first endorser, but this signature guitar model was not introduced until fairly late in the company's original run. This particular guitar does not carry the \"Joe Maphis Model\" logo and may be a late example from shortly before the Mosrite company's first collapse in early 1969. This is a somewhat overlooked but high-quality, good-sounding 1960's guitar, with a more rounded mellow twang than the popular solidbody Ventures model Mosrite, and all the same features at a considerably lower price!\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 42 3\/8 in. (107.6 cm.), 15 1\/2 in. (39.4 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 1\/2 in. (3.8 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 24 1\/2 in. (622 mm.). Width of nut is 1 5\/8 in.
