I have searched the forum and cannot find if this has been asked before and if it has, please accept my apology. Glen used this guitar on the first summer Goodtime Hour in 68 quite a bit and was photo'ed with it prior to that. It is currently at the Musicians HOF and Museum. Can someone provide me with a Model # or name, any information on the guitar and does anyone know who provided the museum (they have yet to respond to me) with this guitar? Thanks in advance for any information you can provide to me.
Can someone help me ID Glen's acoustic Mosrite?

I believe that's a Balladere I. Did you happen to get the serial number?

Hey...Thanks for the response! No I forgot to get the serial.
Crazy eh...went from a Mosrite Balladere to an Ovation Balladeer.

That guitar looks great! I often wonder how an acoustic Mosrite sounds in real life.

HERE is Glen in 68 playing it...Any idea if it was a I or II? My uneducated guess would be a I based up on Gruhns description...

Wow, even Tommy Smothers playing a Mosrite acoustic? As I recall he played Guild guitars.

I believe the Balladere I and Serenade have roughly the same body shape with different dimensions, while the Balladere II is a dreadnought style guitar.

This example at Ed Roman's would be a Balladere II (missing the pickguard):

I really dig that Balladere I.
It seems like you've owned all the cool Mosrites, Adam.
Where did it go?
