H.S. Anderson Japanese 2017 Mad Cat HS-1 Morris Moridaira *Prince* MIJ Japan

Here is the limited edition 45th Anniversary Japanese Morris Moridiera reissue of H.S Anderson’s legendary Mad Cat Telecaster from 2017. For those unaware, this was the guitar made famous by Prince. Only around 500 were ever built back in the early 70’s, a few of which were sent over to the U.S. and re-branded under Hohner. A young Prince found one of these rare guitars in his early days and it stayed with him throughout his career, he recorded Purple Rain and many other albums with his Mad Cat. These reissues were not built in big numbers by Morris, and we don’t often find them for sale. They are amazing guitars in their own right, and were built in the same Moridiera plant in Japan where the original 70’s Mad Cats were made.  It’s the real deal, not the more common Bill Lawrence clone. It's a really high-end boutique looking and feeling Tele with a thick chunky neck, bound and beautifully flamed maple top and back over ash with a walnut centre. It has a thick chunky C profile maple neck with 21 frets, a flatter 11" fingerboard radius and a skunk stripe on the back.  Another really cool feature on these models is the leopard-print binding. On all other models it is black. Weight is 3.4kg. It’s voiced by great sounding USA Bill Lawrence T1 & T2 pickups with 3 way switching. It is in beautiful condition with no visible blemishes at all. It’s been very well cared for. It’s obviously had absolutely no breaks, repairs or mods. Neck is dead straight, plenty of life in the frets, truss rod fine. Comes with hybrid case, tools and original Japanese documents including expired warranty card with the guitar's corresponding serial number printed on. Good to have for investment purposes. Dont miss it.
