New lefty member from Los Angeles

Hi All,

I have been a long time member of the SG101 forum and the Fender Forum. I play in a surf band (facebook.com/counselorsband) and have always played Fender Jaguars and Jazzmasters . . . recently I began considering the option of a Mosrite since many surf bands I like use them. I have been researching like crazy trying to get up to speed on these awesome guitars. I am left-handed, so it makes it a bit more of a challenge to find mosrite style guitars. This forum has been a great resource so far in learning about mosrites! I have seen a couple beautiful custom lefties from "Gun guitars" in Haarlem, Netherlands and have already sent an email to Oigun. I have also left a message with M3 California. Finally, I have looked into "Mosrite - Original" with Dana-Mo pickups from Front Porch in Bakersfield. I understand there to be a few Hallmark Lefties floating around too from the special order that was put in . . . keeping my eyes peeled . . . glad to be a member of this forum now!

Check in with Bob Shade @ Hallmark, if a lefty is available, they are mighty fine guitars and quite reasonably priced!
Welcome!

Thanks for the welcomes guys! I called hallmark today and no more lefties . . . there is a lefty in surf pearl on ebay in surf pearl. Although i think it is really nice paint job, it is not a color for me . . .

Hi Jason,

Welcome to the Forum!
I've built several Ventures style leftys, working with Semie and on my own.
Drop me a line.
