Miniature Mosrite - New Member

Postby MiniatureMosrite » Wed Sep 22, 2010 10:25 pm

My name is Shelley, maiden name "Wilson". I am the daughter of a former Mosrite employee. My Father, Bruce Wilson, worked at Mosrite in the 1960's/early 1970's. Bruce Wilson is the only person that has ever built the authentic Miniature Mosrite, hence my login name. Even though my Father passed away in 2001, the orginal miniature Mosrite still exists, along with the original guitar case that was built specifically for the miniature Mosrite. Also, the original tools that built this amazing guitar still exists.

Thank you for allowing me to join this forum. I look forward to hearing from you....thank you!
~Shelley

Hi Shelley, good to have you on board...especially with your Mosrite connection. Welcome!
Now, it would be grand if you could share some pictures of the mini Mo' ....in fact, dare I ask ALL and anything 'Mosrite' that you might have at your disposal? :?
We're always a hungry lot here, you see! :D

Welcome to the forum Shelley, I'd love to see the "Mini-Mo" as well. I am the resident Celebrity fanatic so if you happen to have any that is Celebrity related I would love to see that as well!

Hi Shelley,

Welcome to the forum! Your dad was a great guy and a good friend.
He use to come over to my shop when I was just a kid and give me guitar
building tips. I remember his cool( I think it was white)65-66 Mustang.
Bruce made me a many silkscreen, there at Valley Decal, and his on shop
down on Chester Ave.

Shelley, good to have you on the forum!
