hi guys,
Hey Ho Let's Go!!!
Well it's finally arrived. My Mosrite Ventures MkII kit - the guitar made famous by none other than one Johnny Ramone.

I've been lusting after this for years now and it's finally here! And boy it's been worth the wait. This is one unbelievable kit! All the key features are there - the body shape is spot on, the headstock has the perfect Ventures shape, and even the 0th fret has been included. This is just amazing!

It's so unbelievable I've already contacted Adam about ordering a second one. That's how damn happy I am right now.
This one will be finished in traditional Johnny Ramone white, with the exact same bridge pickup used by Johnny: a DiMarzio FS-1.
I'm so excited!! It's like my very first kit has arrived all over again :).
Gabba, Gabba, Hey!!!
cheers,
Gav.

wow cool looking axe Gav, never knew this axe was available. Is it a standard range or special order ?
So you going with the bucker neck and single bridge pup or reshaping the pickguard for 2 buckers ?
Love the shape and the bart simpson hair headstock shape !
-
Holy crap! It even has a zero fret, that is awesome. I love Mosrites. Any colour other than white would be sacrilegious.
-
It was a custom order Wokka, but I did get an extra one for stock. I think the price is $179 but Gav can confirm. If anyone else wants one it would be for delivery in October/November. If you want in Ash it will be $209.
-
That is a damn good price for a custom like this. If only I had some dollars. :( To the future!
-
A Mossie. That will be so cool. You keeping the original looking headstock too, Gav?
-
Forgot to ask what colour you have in mind. Those things came in so many colours that some haven't even been discovered yet.
-
@Adam/Wokka - yep $179 it was.
@Lawry - it's gotta be white, at least for the first one. That was Johnny's signature colour with the plain black pickguard. The headstock has the traditional mosrite "M" so there's nothing for me to do!!
cheers,
Gav.
