Hey Aaron,

I own a chocolate brown 350 (only solid brown 350, or for that matter brown Mosrite of any model, I have seen over the past few years), #A0150; it is not a Stereo, it is a single jack, with coil-split button, Grover tuners. I will post pics soon.

Just as a follow-up, Mosrite 350 #A0150 (chocolate brown), was sold new to Jake Graffagnino of the well-known Jake's Music Shop in Opelousas, LA by Semie Moselely himself in 72-73. It was sold from Jake's when new, then sold back to Jake's years after, and then sold again to the guy that I bought it from in 2005. Mr. Jake made a point of letting the guy I bought it from know that he dealt directly with Semie when the 350 (#A0150) first came to his shop brand new.

Also, a (dark-green) Mosrite 350 showed up on Ebay last year; and I have also seen a white-cream 350 bass in past years.

kewl! these are really cool guitars, and are too often overlooked by the guitar playing world, even mosrite fans, so I'm always happy to hear about the other models out there. in a way I kinda wish mine came with the moseley tremolo, but the stopbar versions are awesome as well! :D
cant wait to see your pics!!!!

btw b52a, welcome to the forum, please take time to look around you will learn a TON on this site. :D :D :D
Cheers,
Aaron

The 350 that I had, bought new in '74, was brown sunburst on mahogany.
