Mosrites

Brian Neal (xarxas) - 11 Apr 2002 18:21:34

Hi,
I can't remember if I asked this before. But seeing the Mosrite guitars on
the Nebulas CD reminds me of my periodic interest in these guitars. Not
having played one or seen one in real life, can you guys tell me (talking
about the "standard" Ventures model style)
What is the scale length on these?
Is the trem subtle like a Jag/Jazzmaster or does it dive bomb like a strats?
The pickups are hot wound single coils, right? I heard Carvin made them.
I have heard these advertised as "fretless wonders" meaning very small and
low frets. True? Is this hard to play with thick flatwounds?
How do they feel/handle compared to say a Jaguar or Strat?
Any comments on how they sound compared to say a Jag/Strat?
I am mainly interested in the vintage ones but if you've played a Japanese
reissue I'd be interested in that too.
Thanks!
BN
