Hi folks,

I've been reading this forum for a while now so I thought it's time to sign in.
First time I saw a Mosrite was on the inner sleeve of the first B52's album (the yellow one) and it was love at first sight.
I own one for a few years now, besides the usual suspects: Strat, Tele, Jazzmaster and Gretsch and it really became my main guitar.

It's a candy apple red 65 Ventures model, according to the s/n 3885 it must be a late 65 but the pick-up's must be early 65 since there is no ® behind the Mosrite name. Maybe they were just hiding in the back of the shelf of the assembly line until someone found them.

Hope to share my enthusiasm for these guitars with all of you.

Welcome Roland. That album is in my book a real superb classic! Gets a spin every now and then on the turntable.
