I finished up early Sunday morning, hope to start a new guitar and mandolin here soon.

-- She's a beauty sir! Love the flamed back of the neck! Looks like tip top fit and finish. Thanks for sharing!
The gangster looks so frightening, with his luger in his hand
When he gets home to his children, he's a family man
But when it comes to the nitty-gritty, he can shove in his knife
Yes he really looks quite religious, he's been an outlaw all his life

Hey Mosrite Fans, I'm building one of my E.F.Elliott 1963 "Mosrite Ventures Style" guitars for a customer in Ohio.
Thought I share the build with the Mosrite Forum. I have very high hopes having this project finished before Christmas. You'll have to keep checking back.......to see if I make my deadline!
OK, the materials here, Basswood body, Flame maple neck and East India Rosewood fingerboard.
Here's the glue up.

Someday I dream to have enough to buy a build from you Ed, I know that this is really the closest anyone could ever come to a Sidejack like Semie used to make. I wouldn't be afraid to take yours out of the house either, if I had a real '63, no way would it ever make it past my front door :lol:

Got my 3 ply binding Glued on and the fingerboard Glued on. The trick to the binding is the camo Gorilla tape.
