Hey Guys, never done this before so here goes
This a first for me so please be forgiving, I'm Trodoboy and I live in NE TN which seems like Tornado ally yesterday. I have owned a Mosrite bass since 1974 when I bought a used Mark 2 to play with my cousins in Seattle and I just love to play when I can. I just replaced it with a Peavy Grind 4 and want to restore it (The Mosrite) but having a hard time getting any info on it. So I thought this forum would be a good place to start. I do small home repairs and have been doing it for the last 16 years. Thanks T

Welcome to the forum, T.
There's loads of information here about Mosrite and more, I imagine you are becoming aware of.
You may want to post pics of your bass, the experts can chime in and tell you all about it!
Good luck & have fun!

Thanks Austin, I will try to have some pix asap because I need some help finding info on my bass. Haven't found one exactly like it on the internet and I need a pickplate to go back to the original. I just noticed thet the headstock is "sunburst" rather than black or natural color wise.
