Wanted: Sunburst sidejack set neck 63 Mosrite Ventures Model

Postby Whipsaw » Thu Dec 31, 2015 1:41 pm

Hello all......I am new to this forum. So far It has been informative and just plain fun. I am looking for a Sunburst sidejack set neck 63. Interestingly enough I understand it is not the most popular Mosrite.....but I have always wanted one so here I am. I have an original 64 top jack that has been with me for well over 30 years so I am not new to Mosrites as I have owed a few.. Thanks Bob

Good luck! The last '63 sidejack I saw was purchased for $10,000 and immediately sold to a buyer in Japan for $30,000. You can buy a new made reproduction '63 for around $3000. Front Porch Music in Bakersfield CA. can order you one.

Just talked to Artie at front Porch yesterday. You can't order one at this time. I wish i could edit my first post. I am looking for a reissue. I realize there may have been only up to maybe 200 variants of the originals. Gary's has a bolt on version for 21 grand right now. Way out of my price range. Any feedback as to which manufacturer has the most accurate reissues at this time? I know of Firstman,Fillmore.Kurokumo and others. Thanks Danny

The only other maker I know is Ed Elliott. He make's an exact replica. He posted this on facebook in November.

I'm now taking new orders again for my 1963
"Mosrite Ventures Style" guitars. I believe these are the closest guitars on the planet to the original ones ol' Uncle Semie, my mentor built over 50 years ago. $4199.00 any color you want, G&G deluxe alligator case and shipping anywhere on the planet included. For more information drop me a line at efelliottguitars@aol.com


Here's a link to his post. viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6647

Bob Shade of Hallmark use to build the earlier 59 model but I believe he no longer builds them. Might contact him and see what he can come up with as a custom build. See here, viewtopic.php?f=31&t=1715
