so, I was in the local Guitar Center today to buy some strings and waste time playing guitars, and also trying not to think about n+1, when I hear some someone picking away on Walk Don't Run. WDR was my Dad's favorite song and the reason that I play now, I just had to check it out... there was cmiller0034 and the Star Swirl! Being a Mosrite fan and also having a Mosrite inspired guitar in the works myself, I was blown away to see(and get to play) that guitar. You can feel and hear the love that went into making the Star Swirl.

This guitar is awesome, great workmanship, especially for a first build! Awesome job cmiller0034!!!

I would like to hear the story about how Chris ended up playing at GC.

My guess is he was testing the guitar through different amps. That's what I would have done...

Do you have any knowledge on making pickup covers and rings?

Whoa! This Build Diary is still up 5 years later! Hope people are still enjoying it. Star Swirl still in tune and looking good.

Well, Well, Well, Where the heck have you been.
Glad to hear from you again.
Enjoyed the build. Maybe post a couple new photos of the guitar.

BTW, I found a guy that lives in Argentina, he does killer decals of logos etc. $12.00 for two sets delivered. If interested let me know.

I wanted to add some photos of the work he did for me, but I can not upload photos to the site, and photobucket will not allow me to access them. How can we get direct up[load of photos to the forum ?

Im doing pretty well. Got a chance to Travel to Japan last year in 2024 and picked up my very own Genuine Mosrite at a shop in Osaka City. It is very comparable in tone to the Copy I created so many years ago! I was going to insert photos of it here, but photobucket is appearently no longer free to use. Plan on traveling to California for the Surf Guitar 101 Convention this year for the first time. See some great bands including one of my favorites from England The SPACE AGENCY
