Wow, Johnny, really fine guitar. Like Billy Thunderhead, I look forward to your review. Just a quick note on the side: to my eye the neck seems a little wider at the nut than the typical The Ventures/Mark 1 model. I know you don't have anything to compare it to, as in a vintage instrument, so perhaps Artie can comment.
Glad you are happy with your new Mosrite from Front Porch ! the neck and workmanship of these new models is supurb. I'm not sure if the neck is wider though,Semi told me about a Japanese book he had seen in Japan. that documented the different years of Mosrites,and the neck size of the different years changing.Semi said that the neck profiles changed when he hired a new person for the job of sanding necks! Anybody else want one? Artie http://www.frontporchmusic.net
