Greetings from Sacramento
Hi folks. Just another Mosrite enthusiast from California here. I recently restored a Blues Bender that I had laying in a case in my closet for about 15 years. It was in pretty bad shape; phase shifter button stuck, pots oxidized, rusty jack and wires etc. Anyway, I recently broke it out and did the badly needed restoration that it deserved and it's playing like a dream. I can't believe the prices they're asking for these things on Ebay these days, but I plunked down around $600 on layaway back in '77 for mine so Id say it was a pretty good deal. Just here looking to see if anyone else here has any info on these. They're pretty rare and not much info available on the internets. Thank you kindly.

Here are a few 'before' pictures. It doesn't really look much different now but I can take a few better 'after' pics and post them later.

BTW you can tell by comparing to the ad that the tremelo bar did not come stock on this. I put it on later and kind of regretted it for years until recently when I fixed it back up.
