Where or how to get a Mosrite in the UK?

[Hydra19]

I've been after a Mosrite for about a year now, none here in the UK without a $5k price tag, there was a japanese beat up one for about thousand and three hundred pounds, that was gigged and pretty rough. I got a Hallmark but I'd like something a bit more like the real thing. Is there any way to get a new Mosrite to Europe? I've written to Artie about getting one but I got no response. I realize I'm not gonna find a cheap one so I don't mind going for one of the newer made ones, but I can't read the Japanese website, there's no contact at Front Porch and I don't want to buy from Ed Roman.

Any suggestions or tips welcome! Imagine having Mosrite g.a.s for a year.....frustrating

Hydra, keep watching eBay...it's about the only good option left to us on this side of the globe and unfortunately Japanese vendors don't cater to us hungry mouths outside of Japan. Getting my Hallmark 60 Custom was easy as pie [never stop making 'em Bob ] but I found my other Mosrite luck on eBay: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=4514
(sorry, no pictures; they have since expired on eBay).

Hi Hydra, try to check out this website of an Italian guitar shop:

Btw, I'm gonna play two gigs next month with my band the Hangee V, the first in Bristol:
