It works Dennis. Here's another clip with perhaps more funky Mosrite exposure. Man, you can hear those Mo' pups funking away so nice :D

Let's see now...

Thanks Paul! More proof that Mosrites are ideal funk machines. Get down, get down!

Found an interesting picure on Billy Strange's website. It is a photo from the 60's, taken in a recording studio. Shows Billy Strange, Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood. Billy is playing a Ventures model Mosrite. I could not get the link to copy and paste, so go here:

http://www.billystrangemusic.com/

Go to the media gallery where there is an album of photos called, "Nancy, Lee and Billy" and you will find it. Somewhere there is a color picture of Billy, wearing a native American buckskin outfit, holding a Ventures model Mosrite, but I can't find it. It was a PR shot, or possibly an album cover for one of his solo projects.
For those who are into music from the 60's, and you've never heard of Billy Strange, check out his discography on the website. He did a few recording sessions.
Anyway, more interesting Mosrite history, featuring "Mosrites In Action!"

That is it! Thanks Paul!


Here is the best I could do for the color picture:

He's dressed like a Mexican, not a cowboy :lol:
Looks like the photo was flipped, because he's not a lefty. Seems to be a different Ventures guitar from the one in the Hazelwood/Sinatra sessions.

Great pic Lars! It would be great to use it for an album also ;)
Are joy enjoying your Maphis Mo' ? How did the gig go with it (what you liked about it and what not perhaps)?
