I'm a new member. I bought my first Mosrite, a Celebrity, in 1967. I still have it today and it's in beautiful condition. Over the years, I found a couple of Ventures mid sixties models that I restored and sold. I currently have 8 other guitars, but the Mosrite remains my favorite.

Welcome to the forum. Does the 'revb' part of your user name stand for reverb or Reverend B. Berry?

Welcome, Rev ... Glad to have you with us. No Mosrites currently, or 8 others besides the Mo? Enjoy the forum.

Yes, I'm a Christian minister. Currently the 67 Celebrity is my only Mosrite. I do have an Eastwood look-a-like. The Eastwood neck is nothing like a Mosrite, but identical to an Epiphone. The sound however is very similar to the Mosrite, and it is a very well made guitar.

We also have a very active forum member user name 'Thunderhead' that is a Youth minister.

It's nice to hear from someone that purchased their 60s Mosrite new and kept it all those years. I inherited my brother's '64 Ventures model that he purchased used a few months old in '65, plus I still have my '62 Strat that I (well, my Dad) purchased new and my '65 Bandmatser amp that I purchased new while stationed in Germany.
