Hello from So Ca.

Just wanted to chime in and say hi.
I started playing guitar around 1956 or so, and have owned hundreds of guitars.
I was part of a group in the mid 60s to early 70s and we actually had great success, cutting a few records, and doing some TV.
I then opened my own shop in Las Vegas during the 70s, and still do some refinishing work from time to time.
My guitar collecting had starting to get a little out of hand for a while, so I thinned out the heard down to 34 or 35 guitars now.
One of my favorite guitars is a Mosrite I found at a garage sale for $75.00. It was complete, but in boxes. The only item the guitar needed was a tremelo arm. Great playing guitar! Hope to meet a few more Mosriteites, and read the stories on their guitars. I get a kick in reading where the owners bought, traded, or just came about owning their own pieces of guitar history.
Want to give Mel a big shout out. There was a hitch when I tried to register, but Mel was a big help.

Your refinished guitar looks like the Hallmark sparkle finishes.
