In deepest darkest Suffolk 50 Mogs & 100 Morganeers met up to celebrate the 75th.
With Plus Four & Supersports demo drives from Krazy Horse , detailing demos from MaJ and the band Not Dead Yet we had a great time supported by Nick & his team at the Old Mill House, Saxted Green.
The cost was £15 per person but each car got a goody bag & Krazy Horse provided a voucher for a free MOT meaning you made money!
The weather was warm but cloudy so a good day was had by all.
That was me. It’s a Synchromatic Nashville in Cadillac Green. It’s a chunky thing to play but has become my go-to gig guitar. I think it suited the ambience of what was a fantastic day perfectly. Huge thanks and congratulations to John and Chris from here, and everyone else involved in the organisation for a fabulous event.
The Jag is owned by an ex Aero owner and the Healy by an ex Trad owner. They added a bit of a buzz.
One FM member described as a perfect mini mog. We were lucky that the pub can handle 100 plus orders on the day. The marquee was left up from the vilkage fete. We are now considering an annual garden party there.
I was referring to TBM's one. As an aside I did once own a genuine 1958 orange 6120 which had a custom wide neck. I ended up corresponding with a man in USA who had worked at the factory then. It was the most beautiful guitar I've ever owned. Gold bits and the vibrato arm was wiggly like Chet's. Fabulous sound but woeful for live use..it would not stay in tune for 3 minutes. I nearly sold it to a famous pop chap I knew at the time but he said he wouldn't dare take it on the road. Sadly for my morale, eventually someone offered me so much money for it that I couldn't resist selling it. I've kind of regretted it ever since, but I never used it properly, I always used a strat for gigging. Wonderful thing it was though.
