Hi There, I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to the forum but not to Mosrite. I bought my first in 1965 at Manny's Music on 48th st in NYC. It was a 65 ventures model six string with an alligator case,loved that guitar. I own two mosrite's 65 RI from Ed Roman and a original 66 ventures bass model, yes with duck feet. I collect Acoustic Control amps and pre-cbs
fender amps. BTW also have a 68 BG-500 Mosrite amp that Ed Sanners helped me bring back to life!

Thanks Tony.

Hi Tony, welcome to the forum.
I love to see some pics of your amp. Maybe you could post some shots and tell us about the resurrection in the amp forum. Not many of us have any experience with Mosrite amps, so any information would be greatly appreciated.

Due to the nice collection of photo's, I copied and relocated this topic and photo's to the Mosrite Amp & Accessory forum plus the Mosrite Bass and Guitar forum. It sould get more views and discussion there.

HI There, My Black Widow guitar was made in Japan. The bass was made by Mosrite. In 72 The Acoustic Control Corp. commissioned a company in Japan to build them. After that they went to Mosrite. My B.W. guitar is a 72 and the bass is a 74

Thanks Tony.
