Location: VA | I have this 1674 CA for sale for a friend, but wondering about what they normally sell for? The only thing I can see missing is the trussrod cover. Looks to be original, and it is a one owner. Still has the owners manual I think. Also has the original hardcase. If you folks could help me with this it would be appreciated. If noone here is interested I'll be posting it on Ebay.
Thanks, Tom Frazer |

Location: Central Massachusetts | Tom, welcome aboard. Stick around a while. Search for '1674' in the search tool to learn about these instruments.
These are great guitars, especially plugged in. The cutaways are also very rare -- no more than about 400 1674's built I've heard.
I've seen $750 thrown around a lot for models in great shape. Unfortunately there seems to be a lack of demand for them at the moment so you may have trouble getting that today. Hold onto it until people's tax returns start coming in and I bet you won't be disappointed.
Your friend may be able to get a new TRC from the factory since he is the original owner. |

Location: VA | Thanks for the info. I will do a search here for more info. It's in very nice shape. It just needs a little TLC.
Thanks again, Tom |

Location: East Tennessee | Kind of OT but is there much difference between the 1674 and the 6774? |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Without going to the bible (my stack of catalogs, Jerome's website, the O-Decoder, or give Moody a call) I think the differences are the following:
1674 has a stick on rosette vs. flush indian blanket. 1674 has stack v/t or OP24 vs. Op-X. 1674 has sealed tuners vs. open gears. 1674 has gloss neck vs. satin. 1674 has nylon strings vs. steel.
There may be more differences. Dave |

I make so many typos, foopaah's and outright mistakes that I can't help but have a little fun when a brother does the same. Everything else I wrote above is true. Maybe the bracing is different. I actually thought the 6773 was rather nice but it had a few too many frets for me.

Location: East Tennessee | I have a 1624 which I usually tune down to "D".
I play in a band at church and they do a lot in Eb, Bb and F. By using a capo I can usually play in a more "Guitar Friendly Key". So having the extra two frets to the neck is Ok. |
