Wilson Bros The Ventures VM-65 Blue Electric Guitar, (Used)

The Wilson Bros The Ventures VM-65 Blue is a solid-body electric guitar designed in homage to the surf rock aesthetic associated with The Ventures. It features a distinctive offset body shape inspired by Mosrite-style designs, typically constructed from alder and paired with a bolt-on maple neck. The guitar is built with a 25.5-inch scale length and a rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets, offering a traditional layout combined with its unique body contour and styling.

The electronics consist of two single-coil pickups, often described as higher-output “fat” single-coils, controlled via a three-way selector switch alongside master volume and tone controls. This configuration provides a straightforward signal path with multiple pickup combinations, supporting a range of tonal outputs associated with classic surf and rock styles.

Hardware includes a chrome tremolo bridge system and standard tuning machines, with some examples fitted with upgraded locking tuners depending on production or modification. The Blue finish, often seen as a metallic or sparkle variant, is applied in a gloss coating that highlights the retro-inspired design and reinforces the visual identity linked to 1960s-style electric guitars.
