Ever since I first heard and fell in love with the B52s in the 1970s and saw this (below), I lusted for a Mosrite style guitar.

Bob at Hallmark just make the guitar of my dreams. See separate thread to follow.

I live between Lake Tahoe and Reno and skiing is my main passion.

Hey Jim, that's how many of us fans got involved with Mosrite; pictures on the back (and sometimes front!) of an album ;) ....welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum, I've seen pics of your guitar on TGP and its a beauty! I'm the guy who asked you how the neck profile feels. Coincidentally I learned of Mosrite from the same album you did. Its one of my faves!

hi and welcome to the forum....... :) .......I first learned of the Mosrite guitar from an early Ventures album....at first I was disappointed that they abandoned the Fenders, but grew to love the new sound, and eventually bought a new mosrite in 1964. The neck on that thing was unbelievably fast...low frets and thin neck.
