Ed,
Gorgeous guitars! Is it just me, or does the bottom one, with the flip mute, have a different angle at the end of the neck? The neck pickup looks more tilted on that one. Also, the whole vibramute assembly looks unpolished on that one. Were this intentional differences based on changes between the earlier flip mute and later roller bridge Mosrite guitars?

Wow! I especially like the red Surfer in the first picture. That's such a vibrant color, is that 3ply binding on there? Phew, that's HOT!

Thanks for sharing the pictures!!! I really like the sunburst finishes, however, the red is also very cool. Thanks again Ed.
