1963 Mosrite The Ventures Model Sidejack Bass

Description

Mosrite The Ventures Model sidejack bass, made in Bakersfield, California, in 1963. Based on serial number, this is the twelfth Mosrite Ventures bass ever made. This bass was also part of the personal collection of Noriyuki Yusa (Fillmore), and was published in the 1994 Mosrite Calendar.
Old refinish (over 30 years ago) in homage to The Ventures' "Knock Me Out!" album cover. Replaced pots. Please review all pictures for condition (including cracks to pickguard and pickup ring, portions of binding restoration, minor stable hairline crack in body heel, impressed strap button at lower bout, etc). Sounds amazing, recently set-up, truss rod functions properly.
Includes case, strap, Mosrite fretboard protector, and original photograph used for the 1994 calendar.
