Hi, I'm the new guy...

Hi everyone.

Always loved Mosrites from afar, mostly because I can't afford a real one. I've been a big Ramones fan for years and now I'm finally gonna do the DIY thing and try to make my own Mark II. I've joined the forum looking for tips and advice from the people who know and love these guitars the most.

I've played guitar for about ten years, I've currently got two electrics (one Ibanez, one Agile gold-top copy), one acoustic-electric, and two basses, none of them Mosrites.

Thanks in advance for the help I'm sure I'll be asking of you.

Welcome al27! I am limited in my tools and skills, so I have bought a couple of bodies/necks/hardware from Warmoth to put together my own version of a Jaguar, and a Fender Arrow. Both are awesome, or will be when finished...at least the Arrow has the neck, bridge, tuners and strings on it. I've seen several Mosrite or Mosrite inspired bodies for sale on ebay and I think there is a body/Neck for sale on this forum...that might be a viable solution for you.

Thanks everyone...

I'm not sure if I should just ask here or not, but anyone know where I can get some kind of template for the body? That's what I'm in need of most right now.
