The only thing better than owning a Mosrite is......

...owning more than one Mosrite. Mine is ocean blue with Vibramute tailpiece. Serial # 0321. I have owned it since 1967 when I bought it from Oceanside Music in Oceanside, CA. I don't see a way to post a picture here so I'll figure it out later.
I first heard The Ventures play in 1959 when they had Walk Don't Run and Perfidia on the charts. The moment I saw a Mosrite guitar, I knew I had to have one. Best-looking axe ever made...the only one that comes close is the Paul Reed Smith.

Welcome, Jarhead ... And you are right about owning more than one Mo ... and the best-looking axe made - Little wonder that PRS guitars are successful - he took some of the Mosrite elements and incorporated into his own designs ...

hi Jarhead.....welcome to the forum, fellow New Yorker!
I would love to see photos of it.....there is a thread in the forum that explains how to post pics..
Sounds beautiful, though.....and I agree the Mosrite style is a work of art.....used to own one, too.......

Welcome Jarhead 68 and you did done well good, getting your Mosrite as soon as the GAS bug bit you!
If you ever need storage space for your Mosrites, I still have plenty of room in my house for ´em...
