Up for grabs is an original 1964 Mosrite “The Ventures” model in classic sunburst finish — one of the earliest examples from the golden era, complete with the legendary 5-bolt neck plate and Vibramute tremolo system.

This is not a reissue. This is true Mosrite history, just like the one Nokie Edwards himself played — built at the height of Mosrite’s craftsmanship before mass production took over.

Specs:

• Sunburst Finish – beautifully aged, vibrant grain beneath vintage lacquer
• 5-Bolt Neck Plate – rare early feature, seen on ’63–’64 models
• Original Vibramute Tremolo – smooth action, iconic tone warble
• Mosrite Pickups – insanely hot, punchy, and clear with that signature bite
• Speed Frets & Zero Fret – low, fast-playing neck, trademark Mosrite feel
• German Carve Body – classic offset look and balanced weight

Condition:

• Fully functional and clean for its age
• All original electronics, hardware, finish, and pickups
• Normal wear for a 60-year-old guitar — small dings, finish checking, and honest playwear
• Vibramute works smoothly but needs tightened, frets have life left and it plays great up the neck
• No breaks, no mods, no funny business

Includes:

• Original Hardshell Case (OHSC) – latches work, vintage wear, fully protective

Shipping:

Will be packed with extreme care. U.S. shipping preferred. Local pickup available in Illinois.

Whether you're a collector, surf rock freak, or studio tone hunter, this Mosrite delivers. Lightning-fast neck, unmistakable sound, and pure California cool — it’s got that '64 magic.
