Sweet!

That is beautiful! Congratulations!

Congratulations! I have to ask - is that the charred remains of a Rickenbacker to the left of the Mosrite?

[werewuf]

To MWaldorf: good eye!!! Yes that is a 65 Rickie 360 6 string that met it's fate Easter week of 1968.
The garage of my then drummer burned down after he invited some friends over to jam. They smoked a bit of herb and lit candles, jammed and then left without making sure all the candles were out. After the insurance shelled out, I wound up with my first Gibson SG!
Also got a new amp out of the deal (Fender Super)...

Leo your new Mosrite is beautiful! Candy ink blue, right? I'm shopping around right now for pretty much the model you just got. If you don't mind me asking, who or where did you purchase it from?

Enjoy that new Mosrite and be sure to let us know how it plays!

Snagged my new baby off eBay. Not a scratch or a dent on it:
