New member just saying Hi.

Re: New member just saying Hi.
Jtr654, welcome!
Right now, here in the USA, you have two choices in "Mosrite". Artie at Front Porch has several models from Fillmore in Japan, with vintage correct style necks. And, there is the Hallmark 60 custom, a modern take on the Ventures/Mark 1 model. Check around the forum and you will see accolades for both, so it's not really a quality issue, but a player's preference.
You had an original Ventures model in aqua? Was that a metallic finish?
