The Ventures model bass with vibrato unit

Hi all,

According to the rumor in Japan, there were The Ventures model bass with Vibramute or Moseley unit at 1960s. Is this true? Whether they were special or standard version, I haven't seen such an axe so far. The info from plenty of knowledge will be appreciated.

I've read about a six string baritone, is that what you mean?

Thank you so much, MWaldorf ! Around 1980s, the vibrato units for bass guitar became a fad in Japan. I talked with my friend about that and he taught me this information by hearsay.

As you know, Eastwood also sells similar baritone guitars currently. I wasn't able to understand why Eastwood makes such a model, I make sense they were so inspired with this axe.

Thanks again
