New Custom Mosrites!

[brutus]

What is the deal? Ed roman is making Mosrites in Vegas does he own the rights? Or do these guys? I see Ed says there made in u.s.a. but in the photos of his "shop" they just look like they assemble them. plus his prices for parts are a joke a grand for a tremolo and bridge!! wait.. the spring is 24 bucks so add that in there, plus knobs go for 100. I just want to support the true owner of the Mosrite name I hope it is Semie's family. p.s. whats with Ed Roman's weirdo grudge against Gibson anyway?

The lady on the website is Loretta Moseley, she's Semie's widow. I hope they are bringing the real true Mosrite back. I am wondering about the prices though.

The way I've learned things around here regarding the history of Mosrites (originals, fakes, copies, Japanese reissues etc.) I'd say go vintage for a true Mosrite. Otherwise it'll always be something else. Not saying that you won't get an excellent guitar, though.

HA! Actually, I inquired about pricing from Ed (and didn't have to give him my credit card number) I'll let him share specifics if he chooses, but I can say his prices are very reasonable for what he offers - in the range of production Fender Custom Shop guitars, and far less than Fender "Masterbuilt". Granted there is value in the brand name logo, but there's still something to be said for a hand made guitar built the way Semie used to do it instead of a factory guitar with the Mosrite logo.

Same here, Mel. Ed sent me quotes on his Mo-Clones and I thought they were in line for what they are. I did not expect low prices, after all, they're hand made. Because of how Ed makes them, I bet they sound and feel more authentic than anything else on the market.

I'm going to send them an email back also just to kinda feel out the prices.

This is the response I got from the email.

Hey Kev,
I sent out an E-Mail request on parts replacement this morning, so
