I've never seen that green Mosrite color before. Was this a one-off?

I noticed a GORGEOUS Celebrity in this video. I was watching this with my kids &, lo & behold, there she was. It looks just like the one I used to have & sold about a year or so ago. Why I sold that beautiful specimen is still beyond me.

The first appearance is at about :33 seconds into this, otherwise, unlistenable song.

A couple more keyboards might have helped.

I was wondering which episode that Brady Bunch one was, I just looked it up and according to what I found, it's the "Where There's Smoke" Episode. Perhaps I can find it online on Hulu or some such site.

Edit: I found it on Xfinity and I linked below to an episode list, It's under Season 2 and the first Mosrite scene is just past four minutes in.

Jerry McGeorge (center) from the Shadows of Knights 6-22-1966. The Shadows of Knight's hit was GLORIA. Jerry was a 1963 Graduate of Highland High School. He came home to jam with his buddies from Highland Indiana.

Back in the days before "product placement" everywhere, they used to have to cover up brand logos in TV shows, movies, and commercials. I don't have a clip of it here or I'd post it, but I did a Rolling Rock beer commercial with my Mosrite doubleneck back in 1992-1993 and the producers covered up the logos exactly the way they did with Bobby Brady's green Mosrite! Funny memory!

Love the Bass...Love the song!

I sent it to CJ Ramone through Facebook. Thought he'd get a kick outa seeing a Mosrite bass being used for some good, quality tunes.
