Hi From The UK

Postby BigRedX » Tue Aug 23, 2011 8:43 am

Hi,

I've been a long-time Mosrite Fan, but have never actually got around to owning one. I'm hoping that's about to change fairly soon, so I'm signed up here in order to get all the information I need on the original Mosrite guitars and basses as well as which are best modern re-issues and clones.

A little bit about myself. I'm in the UK where I play Bass Guitar in the Garage Punk/Psychobilly/Surf band Dick Venom & The Terrortones. I'm currently using Gus G3 and Yamaha BJ 5B Basses. At the moment when I'm writing on guitar I'm using either a Hallmark WingBat or a Gus G1 Vibrato.

Looking forward to the wonderful world of Mosrite!

The Wing-Bat is currently on semi-permanent loan to our guitarist, Vicki Twist, who's a good deal more photogenic than me! Here' both of them is in a "behind the scenes" shot from our forthcoming video...

If anyone is interested I'll post up some photos of my other guitars and basses...

Welcome to the forum! My grandson tells me that I have to get one of those Wingbats - he thinks it's the coolest thing with strings.
