Hey Folks,
I just received this in my mail since I'm a member. Any member who got this in their mail now has the opportunity to vote for 'OUR'
favorite brand of guitar, and the more the merrier :D . I tried to transfer the info over on the Forum, but it is 'protected' and you
can't vote unless you are a member. The good news is it does not cost anything to sign up as a member. The deadline to get our votes
counted is August 16th. SOOooo......... "GET OUT and VOTE!" :mrgreen:

Vintage Guitar Magazine 'HOF' (Hall of Fame)--Vote for your favorite guitar...DEADLINE is August 16th!

PLEASE Folks! Whatever you do, PLEASE vote for 'Mosrite' on the Vintage Guitar Magazine!!
You DO NOT need a subscription, just sign up on their E-mail, and that's it ;) !
Come on Gang, let's make this happen.....we have a golden opportunity to get our guitar onboard. Here was my voting response.....

"I've been watching this voting for a few years now. And don't get me wrong, every guitar that made it to the 'HOF' deserves to be there. However, let me throw a few more
names some people might of forgotten over the years.....'the Ventures,' Glen Campbell, Fred 'Sonic' Smith (MC5), Drake Levin (Paul Revere and the Raiders), Iron Butterfly,
Deke Dickerson, Brian Lonbeck (Barbara Mandrell, John William Cummings, better known as Johnny Ramone (the Ramones), Buck Trent (Porter Wagner), Ricky Wilson (B-52s),
Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine), Joe Maphis, Larry and Lorrie (the Collins Kids), Yuzo Kayama (famous guitarist of Japan), and yes, even John Entwistle (the Who) played
one that he modified, which was not unusual with John doing that with most of his Basses. So after mentioning all of these Artists, I'll bet we forgot what guitar company we
were talking about......well, on a Forum dedicated to "Uncle" Semie, a popular expression is the same as when Semie personally signed his name on the back of the headstocks
in the late 80s----"Mosrite Forever." So I am voting for this brand of guitar hoping that it will now join the ranks with the others.....'Mosrite of Calfornia.'"........

There....I have now nominated our guitars to 'Guitar History.' All right, now it's YOUR TURN :mrgreen: . Only one other member voted which was Austin (101Volts)-thank you Sir 8-) .
We have over 400 members on this Forum, so

...............Let's Get to Work!...............

the Listing below, is where you need to go! ;)
