Chris,
Nice job on the website, BTW.
Just wanted to ask a follow up question, I see you have a Mosrite also.
Is it an original or a copy (if so what kind)? How does it compare to
your Jag & Jazzmaster?
Thanks!

The Mosrite is a japanese reissue. It says "Mosrite of
California" and has the Ventures logo on the headstock. It's really
a well built guitar, and has that Mosrite sound. It's hard to
play. Skinny neck, tight string spacing. As I improve as a guitar
player, I can finally struggle through a few songs with it, but i
really have to concentrate. jags and JM's are much freindlier to
play I think.

I was also admiring the Mosrites on your site, Chris. It looks as if the other
guitarist has an original '65 or is that the Japanese copy they call the Custom
'65? Is yours the "Excellent"? All of those Japanese models really were very
well made. It's a shame they had their hand slapped and had to stop production.
I also agree about the difficult necks, but they have a great tone.
