Gentlemen:
I have come into a Original MOSRITE that I do not know what model or style it is, and I would like to find out. I do not know guitars at all, but know where and whom this guy came from. It is a very early one, a semi acustol, hollow body, with only one fret hole on the front, and a full scratch guard on the other side. It has the three piece neck, and front power plug. It has a ser. #E(I think, hard to make out)001001. The bottom string attachment is a silver plate that is embossed with the name MOSELEY. On the top of the neck, up by the tuners is the name MOSRITE, but there is no address, or other words like the later ones. It is painted I think you guys call it the sunburst pattern. There is a white strip around the entire body on the top and the bottom of the body, and up the sides of the neck. This guy is in rough shape, and needs to be restored, but I know it came from a family of a local muscian (HAWAII) who I think had it specially made in either '59 or '61 when he was in California. Please e-mail mewith any other questions you might have in hepling me understand this guitar, it age and model, and possible worth. Any help would be greatly appriciated. Mahalo (thanka) in advance for you replys:
JOHN
