Help with model and year

Postby fatdogstudio » Tue May 17, 2011 9:06 pm

I was wondering if anyone could tell me the year and model of my Mosrite guitar. I think it's a 1971 MK1 but I am not sure.
I'm pretty new to Mosrite guitars. Looks like it might be the same model as a Ventures without Ventures logo.
Also got a Mosrite strap with the guitar.


Serial number on neck is V0294
volume and tone knobs have the M on them
It has Kluson Deluxe Tuners
Moseley stamped on tremelo/tailpiece
Metal selector switch

I feel pretty lucky to have scored this guitar. It is in new condition.

Not sure if it is a Mark V or MK 1. Hopefully someone can shed some light on the model number. I will keep doing research also.

What a find! Congrats. That neck looks pretty chunky. Does it feel heavy?

Mark 1 - 1972.....Thanks for the info everyone.
Neck doesn't feel chunky or heavy. Super thin and feels great.

That's not a guitar, that's modern art (you're a lucky sonofagun)
