Mosrite of California Combo 1967 – Vintage Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar, SP Serial Number Prototype

No sales tax for customers outside California.

The Mosrite Combo 1967 is one of most intriguing models from the legendary California guitar builder. Unlike the Ventures solid-body models that gave Mosrite worldwide recognition, the Combo was a semi-hollow design with unique construction and bold electronics.

This particular example stands out with an SP serial number, suggesting it may have been a prototype or special production model, making it more collectible.  It also shows the pre-1968 Mosrite of California headstock logo. 

There are a couple of changes to the guitar.  The original pickups were swapped with Rio Grande Mosrite replacements.  The pickguard was replaced - the original is altered and included in the case.  There was some ugly work done under the pickguard to accommodate a non-original switch.  The pots are changed.  The frets are low, but they always are on a Mosrite.  The guitar plays well and sounds just as it should.  

This Mosrite delivers articulate highs, shimmering cleans, and warm resonance that suits surf, country, and vintage rock styles. The German-carved body and slim Mosrite neck profile enhance both its visual appeal and effortless playability. Its semi-hollow design creates tonal depth and sustain not found in Mosrite’s solid-body lineup, further elevating its desirability.

Included is a non original case.
