Mosrites (& other guitars) of Johnny Ramone

[Chemo]

I already posted this link in the Ramones topic, but I thought that this might be an interesting link for Mosrite fans who are not Ramones fans as well. So, here's a nice presentation of Mosrites and other guitars used by Johnny Ramone:

Great stuff! I love the '59-ish Rickenbacker 450 that "mysteriously" wound up with Robin Zander.

Robin Zander still plays this guitar at pretty much every show they do. Check them out when you can, they are better live now than they ever were. Zander is a phenominal r&r singer, imo, nice guy too. They have also used Mosrites on their albums on more than one occasion.

Great pics, but seeing Johnny with anything but a Mosrite is like ... like... well I dunno but it just ain't right I tells ya.

I have Robin Zanders home address. I say we all start mailing him letters demanding he return that guitar to the estate of John Cummings (AKA Johnny Ramone)!

Johnny and Robin crossed paths more than once after the guitar "mysteriously" disappeared, it either wasn't Johnnys guitar or, he sold it to him. I saw both bands at Lollapalooza outside Chicago in 96, no reports of a fight and Robin had the guitar there.
