At long last I have a Celebrity!!
I am so stoked! I finally have been able to buy a Mosrite Celebrity. I fell in love with the Celebrity back in the late 80's early 90's when I made a trip to San Francisco. Growing up in Michigan I had never heard of that guitar. My uncle took me to hear some freinds play and there was one guitar that just stood out from the rest. I learned it was a Celebrity and I've been trying to afford one since then. So, tonight I finally won a bid on eBay and got a beautiful Sunburst Celebrity. The serial number is K0772, so I believe that makes it a Celebrity III. The seller said it was a 1970. Please correct me if I am wrong about that. I will post pictures as soon as I have it! I am so stoked!

Nice score, Sarah! I saw it too, and thought it was a real beauty. Clean too. Look forward to your feedback once you get it set up and start playing.
