A 1970s Ventura V-200S — the made-in-Japan take on Gibson's J-200, from the lawsuit era when the Japanese factories were copying the big American jumbos right down to the mustache bridge and the engraved pickguard. Ventura was C. Bruno & Son's import line, and the label inside this one reads it plain: model V-200S, serial 50125, built in Japan. Big jumbo body, big strum — the guitar you reach for when you want the whole room to hear the chords. This one's already got a Lawrence soundhole pickup wired to an endpin jack, so you can plug straight into an amp or PA.
Cherry Sunburst. Very good condition, shown in the photos. Comes with a hardshell case.
