A continuation of the Ventures Model legacy, this guitar follows the stylings of the 1960s USA-made Mosrites, produced in Japan as a result of an agreement between Semie Moseley and the Firstman company. Weighing 9lbs, this instrument effectively captures all the finer points of classic Mosrite design: with a Moseley vibrato tailpiece, “Mosrite”-stamped pickup covers, and German Carve on the basswood body, this Ventures Model is 100% original save for a bone nut.\n\nThe stock pair of single coil pickups is snappy and sparkling, wound on the hotter end of the Mosrite spectrum, delivering a bold, distinct sound in every pickup position. Metering at ~10.6k ohms, these pickups are articulate and lively, with an authoritative treble zing that’s quintessential Mosrite; the neck pickup is fat and broad, while the bridge has a chewier, snappy quality. This Ventures Model benefits from a professional setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.\n\nNeck Specs:\n\n- Wood: Maple\n- Shape: Slender C, measuring .815” at 1st fret, .895” at 12th fret\n- Fretboard: Rosewood, 7 1\/4” radius, mini dot inlay\n- Frets: Medium, no wear\n- Scale Length: 24 3\/4”\n- Nut: 1 5\/8”, bone (replacement), zero fret\n- Tuners: Star tuners\n\nBody Specs:\n\n- Wood: Basswood\n- Pickups: Single coil x2 (~10.6k ohms)\n- Controls: Volume, Tone, three-way pickup selector\n- Hardware: Moseley tremolo, bridge, smooth-top ridged knobs\n- Plastics: Three-ply white pickguard, pickup covers, cream switch tip\n\nThe gloss Black finish has faint buckle wear on the back and a couple of minor marks near the lower strap button.
