From what I have heard, Romans shop is selling off the left over stock but not getting anymore in as Fillmore in Japan is not building anymore Mosrite's as the market there is flooded with used Japanese Mosrite's that nobody wants. Fillmore used to sell alot of high priced Mosrite's in Japan advertising they were made in USA, which was not true. Now that Japan has caught on, the guitars have flooded the used market and Fillmore ltd. is winding down to a close. Dana Moseley told me recently the quality of the Fillmore products has gone down as well and she no longer endorses the product. The high price tag and not so great quality is not a great combination for brisk sales I suppose. I say, if you can afford one of those high priced Japanese copies, then buy a vintage original. They will always retain their value and are the real thing. An of you ever need assistance with one, I can help you.

Bob
