Hey--

Sarah, who will never launch the Celeb Website, wrote:

Exactly! I would, too.

I would be just as proud to own an Ed Elliott-made guitar as I am to own a Semie Moseley-made guitar.

Hope I didn't step on anyones poogies by saying that!

I have always heard that Semie was responsible for making the LAST 200 Black Widows for Acoustic.
And that's what it says in "American Guitars" by Tom Wheeler as well :| .....

BTW Eddie, what ever happened to Bruce Wilson who also made the functional miniature Mosrite
which ended up on the front cover of one of the catalogs?
make the Mos' of it, choose the 'rite stuff.

I am launching the website this weekend. It is finished except for pictures of the Vibramute Celebrity and some minor editing. I have to run some errands but I will be all over it this evening. ;)

j/k sarah.

I'm sure there will be many more potential updates to be made in the future after Sarah has opened her website for us all to behold...knowing a little bitta Mo' history.
With Mosrite it seems like stamp collecting; you never reach completion :? (but that makes it interesting!)
Good luck Sarah! ;)
