Description: 

A very rare Fender Japan Domestic ST-165VR "The Ventures" Stratocaster in very clean condition. This is the "Premium Collection" version made for the Japanes domestic market so it features a hard case and has the additional "the ventures" logo on the body as well as the headstock. Includes original docs & original hard case in excellent condition. Shows very some light surface scuffing, some very small edge marks on the headstock, some light oxidization on the gold hardwear and some light fretwear in the root chord position (tons of life left). No major dings/dents/chips or deep scratches. This was only occasionally played at the most as it is very clean over all for a 30 year old guitar. A very clean example of a rare collectable Stratocaster.

Nut Width: 1.65"



From the web:
The Ventures were an instrumental band, famous in the '50s & '60s, that made extensive use of Fender guitars and basses. In its golden period the band was composed of rhythm guitarist Don Wilson, bassist and guitarist Bob Bogle, guitarist Nokie Edwards, who alternated over time with Gerry McGee, and drummer Mel Taylor.

 

Despite the fact that the band also used Mosrite’s instruments (the company produced a line with its name), in 1996 Fender decided to celebrate his 50th anniversary making, only for one year and in limited edition, a series of Ventures Stratocaster Ventures Stratocaster Ventures Stratocaster Ventures Stratocaster, Jazzmaster and Jazz Bass.

 These instruments featured an ash body with a transparent Midnight Black burst finish.

The Ventures Stratocaster was characterized by a small matching headstock with The Ventures Logo, a bound rosewood fretboard, pearloid block markers, shell pickguard and gold hardware.

Each of the band members asked for changes to the original Fender design: Gerry, in particular, inspired by Eric Clapton, had three Gold Lace Sensor pickups and the MDX boost instead of the second tone knob. Fender Japan decided to continue the production of the Ventures Stratocaster until 1999, but only for the Japanese market; the “domestic” model was distinguishable by the presence of the band’s logo also on the body.

Vale is an 8 month pregnant omega working as a waitress at a strip club and a cam girl. She starts to get very creepy vibes from a regular at the club, and her baby daddy ghosted her. She has had an online relationship with a man named Bishop through her cam girl status. One night, bishop was paying to watch her sleep and ansthe creepy regular Andrew break in and watch her sleep he tells vale to come to him at his business now. She flees and finds herself at a large security company with some.hot of alphas who are there to help her. This imegaverse is a little different than I have read, but I am thoroughly enjoying it. Vale is not a traditional omega she was raised by a single beta mom, and the alphas are not normal alphas they have never really loved pack life. But they are ruthless mercenaries. They need her, and she needs them. I love the aspect of the stalker and now the plot twists at the end, so so good. Sometimes, it seemed a little slow and stale mated, but since this a duet, I think It was just her starting to have Vale get to know her alpha suitors. Cliffhanger for sure with this one.

That ending 😫
Format: Kindle
I fell into a false sense of security and really thought this was gearing towards a happy ending. Then I realized there’s no work they don’t punish Andrew. I really liked Vale’s character. I don’t normally read books with pregnancy but going into this knowing she was pregnant made it more enjoyable for me. I loved Bishops devotion to her and her happiness. I also loved that Holt and Mercy couldn’t fight their attraction to her. I love scent matches so very much. I’m so curious to see how this duet will end up. And I need to pay more attention and notice that a book I’m starting is a duet to begin with lol

oh wow
Format: Kindle
I just knew there was something about Cooper! I’m wondering if he’s about to be included but damn I’m glad he’s at least not a rapist and creepy guy, he just got called on assignment and had to go! This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.
