This Mosrite is a "Built in Soul" model was made in 1993, in Booneville Arkansas, by Semie Moseley's Unified Sound Association, Inc., shortly after he died. It has the Ventures shape and is similar to the M88 guitar as well in that it has no pickguard. The guitar has an original and wild looking purple to blue faded finish. This guitar shows only light play wear and is in excellent overall condition. It has been pro-setup in our store and plays great. It comes with a Mosrite hard shell case that is not original to the guitar.
