Don't think I've ever seen so many mosrite/mosrite-like guitars before all in the same room @ the same time.
I'm well aware that before THE VENTURES popularized Mosrite guitars/basses they played various other intruments but let's face it, the VENTURES idealized their image playing Mosrites. When I saw them in 1981 in L.A. at the Starwood I was totally disappointed when they came onstage with (ugh!) "regular" instruments when I expected my fantasy to be realized by seeing them playing Mosrites.
So the point of this reply is that however many VENTURES show up at the 2012 Fan Jam that if they don't bring Mosrites that a point is made with them to agree to be on stage playing Mosrites and I'm sure many Mosrite owners will be honored to loan them their Mosrites, THE VENTURES model or just "plain" Mosrites. That image needs to be revived!
What's your opinion?
