are there any books about mosrite? You know the big shiny kind like they write about gisbson and fender.I have a Japanese book' vintage mosrite' which is not bad (if you can read japanese) . But with all the knowledge around here I think you could go 4 times the content. My cousins husband works for a publisher . Somebody talk me out of this.....

Now there's an ambitious project. There's definitely a wealth of information here, the chore will be collecting and organizing it. I published a fiction novel a few years back, and learned first-hand how much work is involved...a bundle! You will have the research workload to add to this. In hindsight, I now tell myself, "Be cautious when starting vast projects with half-vast ideas!" :lol:

It would be a huge undertaking. I think Deke has the notion to write such a book and has done a tremendous amount of research already. Perhaps it needs to be a collaborative affair. I don't know. I'd contribute to the chapter on Celebrities. :D

ya definately a huge task. It would only make sense to make it a collaboration. Lets see...I think Id go about it in a time line fashion combining the history with the product evolution . Then a color gallery of pics. Then a tech section that would be the total mosrite repair and restoration manual for future generations. Then a history of copies and clones. Then famous mosrites , glossary of other mosrite related personalities etc etc o boy
