I'm sorry, I neglected to elaborate. Mainly neck plates, roller bridges, tailpieces, tuners, pickups and pickguards, maybe necks and bodies. Thanks, Kevin

Kevin, are you wanting original parts to restore a vintage guitar? If not send an email to Bob Shade at Hallmark. Although his bridges are not exactly the same as the original Mosrite's, they are far better than the sloppy fitting MIJ Mosrite's. The Hallmark 60's custom pickups are virtually the same sound, size and appearance as the original Mosrite's. I would imagine his pickguards would fit also since he used a Mosrite as a template for his 60's custom and Bill Gruggett help design it. Gruggett was the plant manager at the Mosrite factory in the 1960's.

Tunner's are available on ebay or internet. They are called Kluson tunners and were the original tuners Semie used during the sixties. They are a perfect fit.

Here you go Kevin. Kind of on the expensive side but they aren't going to be cheap no matter where find an original. http://cgi.ebay.com/1966-mosrite-ventur ... dZViewItem

I purchased a couple of Japanes Mosrite neck plates from Kevin Mazz over on the Mazzrite forum. Unless you can find his phone number, you'll have to contact him via email and sometime it is extremely hard to get a response.

For pickups, also consider Ed Elliot. I've got his pickups in my Parts-rite and the sound is spot on my '66 Ventures model.
