Thanks for sharing, Mel. We hope to see Fillmroe, Kurokumo, Firstman, Swing Science and many more all displaying Mosrite clones in the next show... (Bakersfield CA, 2009?)

That would be great but if the lack of interest I encountered so far is an indicator, well...........................
It is beyond my means to get a commitment fron Asian collectors or vendors. Heck they won't even answer an email about buying the products.
There's been a decent interest in attending and viewing but so far only one person outside Artie indicated they would bring something to display. We'll see what develops during the new year. At least we may have a forum T shirt after the new year. I hope.

I think the main reason Japanese vendors don't respond to the inquires from the US is mainly due to the language barrier and culture difference. We need someone like Ten to build the bridge for us. Adam maybe able to help to bring more Japanese fans to our forum. I am very active in one of the Taiwanese guitar forums and have posted many threads about Mosrites. But unfortunately, there are not too many people are interested in Mosrites. (only a small portion of people older than 55 have heard about The Ventures, and much small percentage among them have ever heard of Mosrites)
I am sure there are a lot Japanese fans reading this forum but just do not participate. (we call them "divers" in our Taiwanese forum) One of our members from Singapore has PM me and asked me a few questions. I encourage him to participate the discussion but so far he has not joined us yet. (Will, come out of water and join us.. )
Danny, it takes time to get the words out and establish the network. You are doing amazingly great so far. In time, there will be a "Mosrites convention" in Bakersfield someday.

Re: Fillmore guitar show booth
i hope no one thinks this is racist, but does anyone else think's it's funny to see japanese musicians impersonating white musicans from the 60's?

They impersonate the white musicians because they love their music and see them as their hero. I don't see anything wrong with that. If I were one of those musicians I would feel honored.
When I was young, I loved and watched a lot American Western movies in Taiwan. Gary Cooper was my big hero. As a kid, I loved to imitate the way he walked, drew the gun etc. in the movies. If Gary was alive and saw this, he would be smiling...

The lead guitarist plays and acts like Nokie (a quiet type but talented, he used the thumb pick too) I am sure Nokie feels good watching this.
