Hello everyone.
I am a retired person who has always admired Mosrite guitars but never played one. I am currently awaiting delivery of my first Mosrite, a used Kurokumo from Japan. I own a Rickenbacker 360v64/12, Fender Strat, Gibson ES 335, Gibson Les Paul, Martin acoustic electric, Larrivee 12 acoustic electric, PRS Santana model, Ibanez acoustic electric, and a Japanese Silvertone "Mosrite wannabe" from the sixties.
I had a buddy in high school who owned a white Mosrite and played in a local rock band. I had only a cheap borrowed Kay flattop and barely knew a handful of chords, but I knew I had to learn to play. I loved the Beatles and the Ventures and yearned to play like them. The Mosrites were always out of my price range, but I have admired them from afar until now. Hopefully you folks will educate me about this dream guitar of mine and all its history and trappings.
