yet another newbie.

Postby boyecho » Wed Jun 10, 2009 6:10 pm

greetings all. my name is nick. melwaldorf suggested i join up over here through another forum.

i currently have a 1967 or 68 mosrite celebrity, and a 2006 or 2007 japan mosrite that i'm actually kinda forced to be selling. i love old instrumental music, including surf and '60s. and i'm a huge fan of quirky guitars and space-age design.

i'm not good at introductions really, i'm here because i share the love of semie moseley's craftsmanship and aesthetic, and the lack of proper mosrite information online is appalling.

cheers!

Welcome to the forum.

Hope you don't mind, I spotted your classified over on SG 101 and posted it here in our for sale section hoping a Mosrite fan here will grab it. Feel free to list it here with photo's and I'll delete my post.

even though i just sold the guitar i lusted after for at least ten years, i still have my celebrity to keep me held over.

eventually i'll get another mark i style in the future.. right now i'm more interested in building my own guitars.

i forgot to add that i've started tinkering with building: a bolt on cross between a jazzmaster, a gretsch, a muscle car, and a space ray gun; and an art-deco-meets-the 1950s-meets-tomorrowland lapsteel.

they're completely amateur, and i don't mean to tout any sort of skillset. just a new hobby i seem to be enjoying.

thanks for the warm welcome, everyone.
