hey. welcome to the forum. take time to look around on here, there's a TON of mosrite info on here. i'd check on the sales section of this forum. I'm not sure what prices would be like in europe, but in the US these guitars aren't worth more then 2000, even though ed roman will sometimes charge more.
If I were you I would keep in eye out on ebay. I bought mine in 2004 for $900, and I don't think it's worth more then what I paid for it.
They are awesome guitars, fun to play and extremely light weight.
If you do get one, change out the DiMarzio fat strat bridge pickup. they sound awful. I would recommend a Rio Grande Baby Bucker, or if you want to keep the pickguard the same a JB JR from seymour duncan works.
Good luck in your search!

Moi Tomi,

I am also from Finland, but let's keep this in english so we won't close everybody else here out of this conversation.

Levytukku imported a Johnny Ramone model some time ago, abt. 5 years back or so. To my knowledge, those were made by Fillmore as a special version of Mark II - remember, this was before the signature model which was considerably more expensive. If I don't remember wrong, the list price of the Ramones Mosrite at Levytukku was 650,00 EUR.

I have one of those guitars. If you have any questions about it, please feel free to contact me by a private message.

As there are not too many Mosrites available in the Finnish market, it is a bit hard to name a price that would be exactly "right". What is the asking price of the guitar, and is it one those Levytukku models?
