I think it would classify as a clone http://www.richmondguitarscanada.com/dorchester.html

A clone of what?
A child's rendering of a Rickenbaker that got sexually assaulted by a Tokai Hummingbird?
That is one ugly guitar.

Well I was just looking at the features it had, roller bridge, tailpiece that in a way resembles a mosrite 12 string tailpiece, angled neck pickup, lengthend lower horn.......

Why would anyone put a roller bridge on a hard-tail guitar? For "tone prevention" or something? :lol:
It may have an angled neck pickup and lengthened lower horn...but it still looks ugly as sin to me.

Well, let's see. hummmm............ Although I personally don't care for it, I can see where it draws it's influence. It has somewhat of a German carve to it's edges, the headstock shape is slightly angular as well as the neck pickup. So, yeah, I can use my imagination and see where this would fit not as a Mosrite clone but better yet, Mosrite influenced category.

It sorta has that Standel look to it.

WoW! That's Funny!!! I actually saw ALL THREE- Mo', Ricky, and Stan. :mrgreen:
It's definitely a HYBRID. I'm not crazy about the looks of it, it's OK at best IMO. But
that new Peavey, well now were talking a different tune
