Aria VM-50th The Ventures 50th Anniversary Model Guitar
« on: November 19, 2015, 03:12:15 pm »
Hello to all Venture Fans...

I am posting this in hopes someone will be interested in a once in a lifetime buy. This is one of many guitars in my collection of Venture Model Guitars.
I have not seen this guitar anywhere in the USA or Japan. There were only 50 made, in honor of The Ventures 50th Anniversary a few years back. So it is very RARE. This guitar was given to me by my friend Bob Itoh at Aria Guitars Japan. Don Wilson played this guitar briefly but decided it was to heavy for him. I asked my friend Bob Itoh from Aria if I could get one of these guitars he said sure and gave me this one. I have used this guitar to record demos in my home studio. There are minor scratches on the pick guard other than that it is in mint condition.
If anyone has any question please feel free to PM me by clicking on the envelope icon to the left of this info.

Hi Leon, welcome to Fans Of The Ventures!
Great guitar, I'd love to have it, but I'm not adding to my collection--we're running out of storage space!

No way Walt!

My bandmates all say she's my best sounding Jazzmaster.
Her action is easy on the fingers, her vibrato is near perfection, and she stays in tune!
B-T-W, how did you know her name is Goldie?---Is she going out behind my back?
Oh, I better lock her in her case!
