long history of litigationagainst Johnson, contactedthe museum, arguing thatJohnson agreed to sell theguitar to him before it wasdonated. Johnson and Moss,both of whom live in Mem-phis, Tenn., are each listedas defendants in the mu-seum’s complaint.
The museum in court fil-ings argues that even if Mosswas the owner of the Elvisguitar before Johnson do-nated it to the facility, hisownership ended when themuseum acquired it. Thecomplaint states that if Mossfeels he was wronged, heshould sue Johnson for dam-ages.
“There are significant is-sues with his claim includingthe fact that this guitar wasapparently on display for anextended period of time inhis hometown and he madeno effort to go get the gui-tar,” the museum’s attorney,Mitchell Peterson, saidThursday.
Johnson, who played withsinger Isaac Hayes and theband John Entwistle’s Ox inthe 1970s, donated the Elvisguitar and other items to themuseum in April 2013, and inexchange received $250,000for his 1967 Gibson ExplorerKorina wood guitar. That in-strument was formerlyowned by Entwistle, who isbest known as a member ofThe Who.
Moss’s attorney, RandallFishman, moved this week totransfer the case from statecourt to federal court. Mossdid not return phone mes-sages left at his businesses,and Fishman declined tocomment about the specificsof the suit.
Records for a libel anddefamation lawsuit filed byJohnson against Moss instate court in Tennessee inJanuary 2014 shed light onthe collector’s dispute overthe guitar.
The lawsuit’s exhibits in-clude a payment agreementsigned by both collectors in2008, in which Moss agreedto pay Johnson $120,000 forvarious guitars including theone now on display at themuseum. Those records alsoinclude an email Moss sentto the museum in December2013 claiming ownership.
“Johnson did not have theright to transfer ownershipof that guitar in any way, viasale, via donation, via trade,via loan, or any othermethod,” the email stated.“(I) will not yet claim that theguitar is stolen, but I paidhim for that guitar 5 yearsago, and have been trying toget possession ever since.”
In an affidavit filed in thefederal lawsuit in SouthDakota, Moss claims that thevalue of the Elvis guitar is“well in excess of $75,000.”
Federal court recordsshow Johnson has not re-sponded to the lawsuit. Anattorney for Johnson has notbeing named in court filingsand phone numbers listedfor him and his business,Mint-Man, LLC, have beendisconnected.
Johnson’s donation to themuseum also included a ChetAtkins hollow body guitargiven to country pianistFloyd Cramer and laterplayed by Jerry Lee Lewisand Mickey Gilley, a 1966custom Grammer guitarmade for Johnny Cash, a1961 Kay Value Leader guitarsigned by blues legendMuddy Waters and one ofBob Dylan’s Hohner MarineBand harmonicas.
