Real or fake

Postby Kalthedog » Sun Aug 19, 2018 11:13 am

Can anyone help. I’m looking to buy a Mosrite I’ve seen. It doesn’t have a bolt on neck, it has nickel plated parts, it’s body is bound. It has white p90s, the headstock doesn’t have the ventures logo,the headstock is wavy at the top not jagged like the ventures. Do you think it’s a genuine Mosrite? Thanks

The wavy headstock is suppose to represent an "M".
Sounds like you have a repro/clone. Please post photos.

The top of the Headstock is an "M" for Mosrite or Moseley.
