Hello all

Postby CivoLee » Thu Jan 07, 2010 9:07 pm

Hello all

This is my introductory post. I've never played a Mosrite, but I've always liked the body style(s) and might try one out someday.

Being in my mid to late 20s, my points of reference for Mosrite are closer to grunge/punk/indie than surf or 60s pop.

Please check out my band in th link in my sig!

Welcome to the forum CivoLee, Coincidentally I'm also in Pennsylvania. Darn, You're in Pittsburgh? I'm not too far off, If you count 50+ miles as being close. Which Mosrite models do you like? Although I haven't ever played one I think a 70s model would be better for my style.

Austin
1966 Ventures II (German Carved, B670.)
1970s "Not a Blues Bender" Bodies: 2.
1976 Brass Rail Deluxe #10.
2013 Fender Pawn Shop Bass VI.

I've always liked look and vibe of the Avenger/Ventures models, but the one that really interests me is the Bluesbender. I consider that to be a lost classic of sorts. So I guess I'm with you in that the 70s models would be a better fit for my style of playing.

I started a topic in the Modern Mosrites & Clones section about copies of the Bluesbender, but I don't know that I'm gonna hear anything much. I know Ed Roman's in charge of the Mosrite name now, but somehow I don't think he'll be doing a Bluesbender reissue. Plus, even if he did, he'd probably charge $3000+ for it...

Technically speaking, Ed Roman is in charge of jack and squat.
