I played this guitar yesterday, and thought it was a real Mosrite, but looking at the listing, I guess it's a fake? I notice that none of the photos have the front of the headstock, which I suppose is significant. Nevertheless, to my Mosrite-untrained eye it seemed pretty accurate, an it felt and sounded quite good. Something to look into if you're looking for a Mosrite on the cheap - though, of course, buyer beware!!

These are supposed to be really good copies. I've heard a couple in action and didn't know the difference.

The Mosrite Avenger was a Japanese replica. Nothing whatever to do with Mosrite of California.
