Default Johnny Ramone's Mosrite Electric up for Auction

Johnny Ramone's 1965 Mosrite Ventures II guitar is up for auction. He bought it in 1977 and played it in every Ramones gig thereafter.

I have no idea what this will go for but all it takes is a couple of avid fans with income.

Sad when you think that 3 of them all passed away at relatively the same time around the age of 50. They've all passed on now.

They were the fathers of punk imo.
I thrashed around in a mosh pit to the hey ho let's go in the 80s.
I still don't know how that sweaty fat guy expected me and a couple of chicks to catch him diving from a 3' stage.
Then we had to dance around him!
