One look at this guitar and your mind conjures up surf tones of the sixties, but this Mosrite 1965 The Ventures Reissue is so much more than just a surfer's guitar...

Here we have one of the classics, built with impeccable Japanese craftsmanship and professionally dialed in and ready to on stage or in the studio. This killer Mosrite EX-65 "The Ventures" Model reissue from the highly sought after and celebrated "Excellence Series" These guitar were built with an attention to detail and construction that rival some of the best Mosrites I have played. The look and feel of these guitars is spectacular and I feel that these are consistently great guitars.  The neck is perfectly straight and everything works flawlessly. The pickups are strong and sound great.These guitars have a character, feel, vibe, and mojo all their own. The neck is slim and fast but still feels substantial in your palm. The speed comes from the super low frets (think late 50's Les Paul Custom Fretless Wonder). There is no doubt that vintage guitars sound better than anything on the planet. Something about old woods and electronics just have a certain magic. These dual single coils offer warm and mellow vintage tones that are perfect for just about anything, but don't let the cute looks fool you. This guitar can growl when driven and rock with the best of them.  This guitar has been cared for throughout her life. This is evidenced by the original frets being in such good condition. There is no pitting on the fret board and the body has only light wear. This 27 year old guitar is definitely in excellent condition. You might find a polish mark or maybe a minuscule ding (although I could't find any) but this thing looks pretty much MINT. The finish has aged only slightly and is not too creamy.  The tremolo bar and hardware are in perfect working order and the pick-guard has no cracks and is in stellar condition as well. Comes with original hard case and was just restrung with fresh strings. The case has a tear to the tolex that can be seen in the pics, but is in overall nice shape. This beauty is just in need of a loving home so she can show off all the creamy tone and killer looks she has to offer.

Terms For Returns & Re-Stocking Fee’s


We recognize and accept a 7 day return policy as per Reverb guidelines, BUT intentions of the return must be communicated in writing within 3 day of receiving the guitar as indicated by the tracking. Unless the guitar is not as described, ORIGINAL & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS INCURRED (NOT CHARGES) WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. There is a 10% Re-stocking fee for ALL guitars that are returned for ANY reason outside of damage from shipping or it arrives not as described. Please note that we record demo videos to make sure our guitars go out exactly as we describe them with zero issues. We understand that feeling comfortable is vital to the purchase of a guitar/bass so in any case, additional measurements or in hand descriptions are available prior to purchase/shipping. Thats said, guitars travel a great distance some times and in transit things can happen. Also guitars acclimate to new environments and this can cause a need for a new set up or minor adjustment. It is acceptable and normal if there is for instance a tiny bit of buzzing or the need to adjust a truss rod. We are in south Florida and if you are in a colder or less humid environment it is almost to be expected. Please read our feedback and see what our customers say. The guitar MUST BE RETURNED IN THE EXACT CONDITION it was advertised/received or it is subject to additional costs & or repair fees. We are not a big chain shop, I hope you understand. If you are uncomfortable with these terms please do not purchase. There are plenty big chain shops that can absorb free trials and shipping.
