Sweet Dreams are made of these... Talk about MOJO in all the right places. Here is a killer 1965 Mosrite "The Ventures" Bass that is dripping with swag and chocked full of sweet vintage tone. Don't let the old school looks fool you, she has a big powerful sound with plenty of thump and bottom end. She is hot to trot and professionally set and dialed in by the world famous LAYS Guitar Shop in Akron Ohio. The bass is properly balanced and plays smoothly. It has a wild and highly desirable Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard that just adds to the vibe. The frets are dressed, level and polished and have plenty of life left. The are some obvious and cool looking nicks from being rocked on the road and weather checking everywhere. I would say it is in a a light relic condition with no big or nasty dents or scratches that take away from this old girls beauty. She is an awesome rocking machine with some honest play-wear that adds the charm.
