Up for sale, a 2000s Mosrite Super Custom ‘65 Ventures Model in showroom-clean, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Crafted at the KuroKumo factory in Japan, this rare reissue model was made for a limited period, with the majority of examples only available to the domestic Japanese market.
KuroKumo-made Mosrites are sought after for their masterful build quality and attention to detail, and this Super Custom ‘65 replicates all the essential features of the early Ventures Model instruments, with smooth knobs, sandcast Vibramute tailpiece, and prominent German Carve on the basswood body. The stock pair of single coil pickups are somewhat more conservatively wound than vintage USA-made models, metering ~6k ohms, still delivering an authoritative sound that's quintessential Mosrite. Weighing 8lbs 8oz, this Super Custom ‘65 Ventures Model has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Medium C, measuring .850” 1st fret, .865” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood, 10” radius, mini dot inlays
-Frets: Slender, no wear
-Scale Length: 24 3/4”
-Nut: 1 9/16”, aluminum + zero fret

-Tuners: Kuson-style, Gotoh
Body Specs:
-Wood: Basswood
-Pickups: Single coil x2 (brass baseplates, 6k ohms)
-Controls: Volume, Tone, Three-way pickup selector
-Harness: Full-size GuitarFamily 500K pots
-Hardware: Bridge with roller saddles, sandcast “Vibramute” vibrato, smooth-top machined knobs
-Plastics: Three-ply tortoise pickguard, Mosrite-embossed pickup covers
The gloss Pearl White finish is exceptionally clean, with barely a mark on the body. The gloss on the neck profile is flawless.
