🔥 RARE 1990s MOSRITE OF CALIFORNIA 1963 “THE VENTURES” SUPER CUSTOM REISSUE – KUROKUMO SUNBURST BEAUTY! 🔥
Surf rock royalty just hit the market! This is a genuine, limited-run 1990s Mosrite of California “The Ventures” Super Custom Reissue — handcrafted in Japan by the legendary Kurokumo factory (right down the road from FujiGen). It faithfully recreates the exact 1963 Super Custom model that helped The Ventures conquer the world with that unmistakable twangy, biting tone on classics like “Walk Don’t Run,” “Pipeline,” and “Wipe Out.”
Why this one is SPECIAL:
- Triple-bound (three-ply white binding) body — the premium Super Custom treatment that screams high-end ’60s elegance and gives it that extra classy flash under the lights.
- Stunning deep three-tone Sunburst finish over a lightweight basswood body with the iconic first-generation German carve contour. Ultra-comfortable, perfectly balanced, and dripping with vintage vibe.
- Aggressive offset double-cutaway shape with those razor-sharp Mosrite horns — it looks fast even when it’s hanging on the wall.
Neck & Playability:
- Super-slim maple neck (a true speed demon — measures approx. .78″ at the 1st fret, .85″ at the 12th). Feels like butter.
- Bound rosewood fretboard with pearl micro-dot inlays, slender vintage-style frets, zero-fret + aluminum nut, and flawless 24-3/4″ scale length.
- Low action, spot-on intonation, and lightning-fast playability right out of the box. This thing begs to be played — dive-bombs, chicken-pickin’, surf tremolo, you name it.
Tone That Defines an Era:
- Pair of authentic Mosrite single-coil pickups with smooth black covers (not the ribbed ones). Bright, snappy, and sparkling with that signature Mosrite growl — chewy & aggressive at the bridge, fat & vocal at the neck, and crystal-clean in the middle. Perfect for surf, rockabilly, punk, indie, or anything that needs bite and clarity.
- Classic Mosrite Vibramute vibrato system (sandcast base, chrome arm) — buttery smooth, stable, and insanely expressive.
- White 3-ply pickguard, chrome hardware, Kluson-style tuners, and that massive “Ventures” logo on the matching sunburst headstock.
Built during the golden era of Japanese guitar making, Kurokumo Mosrites are widely regarded as the absolute best reissues ever produced — tighter tolerances, better wood selection, and playability that often beats the originals. This one is 100% original, in very good condition, and ready to become the centerpiece of your collection. It has a few small dings and nicks around the edges and on the face of the headstock. (see pics)
Whether you’re a die-hard Ventures fan, a Kurt Cobain-style noise-rocker, or just someone who demands a guitar that looks, feels, and sounds like pure 1963 California magic… this is the one.
Don’t sleep on it — these Kurokumo Super Customs are rare as hen’s teeth and fly off the market fast.
Serious players only. DM for more photos, video, or to make it yours today. Ships fast and secure anywhere in the world.
