I've contacted this guy and told him that it's not a Mosrite but he says that he bought it in Japan and they told him it's genuine,so as far as he's concerned it's the real deal.
As far as I'm concerned it's outright fraud.http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/prahran/ ... 1011720246

I don't know what they told him, but it's a Wilson Brothers VM-50 http://www.wilsonguitarventures.com/vm50.html

Well, let's all send him a polite message containing the link Fritz provided ;-) That's what I did.

Agreed, I have a Wilson Bros. M-75 w/Tremolo, and although a nice guitar, it's not a Mosrite. I'm not sure why they reversed the bouts even. Why not keep the sillouette the same as a Mosrite? I dunno, but it's obviously not a Mosrite. Caveat Emptor

For all the Mosrite similarities this has he may as well try passing it off as a Telecaster.
