A 'Mosrite' for Â£172?- unbelievable!

What can you get for Â£172 these days? How about a Mosrite style guitar for a bargain Â£172! The Mosrite is probably most associated with instrumental group 'The Ventures' and also punk legend Tommy Ramone. This is a stunning design- I think it's shape is 'retro-futuristic'-like something from a 1950's Scl-fi film (the band 'Man or Astroman' have also used mosrites). This version has Stainless Steel frets and Locking tuners AND coil splitting for Â£172!!!! This is maybe my favourite HB guitar so far!

Wanted to give a 5 star review but.....

bought this guitar because of it's features, price, look (wish there was more choice in colour as opposed to 3 tone sunburst) there were some flaws. the bridge pickup route is off-centered by at least 5mm, does not sound like much, but that means the pickup poles are not in line with the strings, they are all off to the side by that half centimeter, and only way to remedy it is to enlarge the route on the opposite side and re-seat the pickup. Also the screws holding the bridge pickup were stripped, would be a good idea if whoever puts these guitars together use the right size screwdriver. the neck pickup is mounted to be askew to the strings but even that was a little off, but not by much. might have to change the wirering since the middle position using single coil is not hum-cancelling. besides that all is very, very good (forgot, the trust rod cover on the headstock fell off when i started playing the guitar, the screw seemed to have snapped since there was no head on the screw holding the plate down, another reason i believe whomever put put this guitar together is not familiar to using the tools, or even the right tools to do the job. most of these things are not noticed during inspections because honestly they are not noticable unless looked for. but I do love the feel of the neck, i'ts a little wider then most but feels very natural. it is a heavy guitar but it sits well on your body having no neckdive. besides those flaws I stated, I am happy with this guitar.
