Twangy,
Aside from yours truly, there is also "The Count Five" ("Psychotic Reaction")
I remember Beau Charles of the Knickerbockers ("Lies") playing a Mosrite on the Lloyd Thaxton Show.
Then there is Pat Dinizio of the Smithereens and the Nebulas of Massachusetts
BTW - it's Eric Braun (RIP) of Iron butterfly - not not Erik Brann.
Pretty full dance card you've compiled. My compliments..

And...
The Volcanos
The Lost Patrol
Tomoko Tanaka

Sune Wagner of the Raveonettes has recorded a great deal of their discography with a Mosrite.

Ralf Kilauea from The Kilaueas sometimes uses a 1968 Mosrite or his 50th Anniversary red sparkle Mosrite. ...but only when the screws of the expensive bridge are not lost...

Twang cheers!

Mel Waldorf (The Mel-Tones, Meshugga Beach Party) uses Mosrite type guitars, and the new guitars he's building are based on them as well.

Technically, the nebs are from Province RI.
Dano has been saying we're from Boston, but even then, a more accurate description would be that we're just "from New England", since we're spread across 3 states.
Sorry to interrupt this broadcast.

A thread about Mosrites and no mention of Garrett or The Ghastly Ones?

Ted did mention Venturesmania, so I guess that counts.
