Ventura
Fine Fretted Instruments
Serial No. 830107
Model No. V-9
designed in USA built in Japan
I cannot find a SINGLE reference to this model, a twelve string acoustic, online; nor in any of the Ventura catalogs I have found. Squared headstock. Standard dot Inlay.
Bought it from a lady on the OfferUp app (kind of like craigslist) in Dallas for $50. I put on new strings and it plays n sounds like a $1000+ work of art.
If anyone can provide ANY information, I will buy you lunch the next time you are in big D.
Thank you!!!!!
