70s Firstman? I've seen photos of these as well as Strat and Tele type guitars with no semblance of Mosrite features branded Mosrite.

I've seen those 335 models before - I didn't mention those because they at least have Mosrite style pickups. I bet that's a nice sounding guitar.

The Firstman Shrike-ish model I've also seen, but never with a Mosrite style vibrato - cool!

Guys, It's AMAZING what you can do with a water slide-on decal. I've seen a boat load of these on
all kinds of guitars. I've even seen the Mosrite decal on Harmony, Kay, Japanese Epiphones, as well
as the others that have already been mentioned. I'm sure that Adam will confirm that there are a
bunch of these out there on the market, in which the seller is trying to cash in on a "rare Mosrite"
in which you had ' better act fast' if ya want a rare Mo'......Buyer....BEWARE...... :| .
make the Mos' of it, choose the 'rite stuff.

The interesting thing with these is that they're Firstman guitars, from the same manufacturer as the Mosrite Avengers. So they're not just aftermarket hacks - they were "Mosrite" guitars from the start.
