Bob K's Guitar collection

[Bob K]

This is Frickin Insane!!! That collection would make the Smithsonian jealous!

A 1963 Sidejack Mosrite Bass....S/N #5002.....OK......with the Vibramute System?!?!?!???!?
I wanna see more , but my 'puter won't let me!

This is an extremely rare bass - the only one I have ever seen with the mute bridge. It also has the black Guild style knobs, a black-faced head stock and a larger than large Ventures logo with no "The". There is a picture of the Ventures on the back of the Play Guitar with the Ventures album volume one showing Bob Bogle with a bass exactly like this one - in fact it may be this one!

Bob, you truly have an amazing collection, one that could indeed be a museum in its own right! When did you start collecting and where on earth did you find all these treasures??!

Jason - I started buying guitars in 1991. I used to go to the big vintage guitar shows in Texas and California. Once people learned that I was collecting them I started getting calls from all over offering Mosrites to me. One thing I regret was not buying the 3 Strawberry Alarm Clock Mosrites when they were offered to me at a very reasonable price. I didn't realize how collectable they would turn out to be.

Whoa!
Those are all beautiful guitars, but I am particularly in awe of that Sidejack Bass and Maphis Doubleneck.

DROOL.

Bloody heck! I now know who the luckiest man on earth is.
I am overwhelmed by envy, jealousy, lust and any other word that applies.
