FRET KING Green Label
Ventura 60

Hand Built In the UK
RRP £ 1699
Daring to look different, the Fret-King Ventura could be a styling studio prototype straight out of the 60’s. 
Ventura makes a statement about your individuality – working live, on stage or in the studio! 
As Trev observes, “Unlike some of the guitars from way back then however, the unique offset Ventura design benefits from hardware and pickups that actually work!”
“You’ll sound great and stay in tune on stage or in the studio, with a winning combination of function, style and sound in one cool package.”
The Fret-King Ventura features a two-piece centre-jointed American alder body and Fret-King’s 60’s profile rock maple neck, with 22 fret, 25 1/2" scale length and 10" radius rosewood fingerboard

FRET KING Green Label
Country Squire Semitone

Hand Built In the UK
RRP £ 1829

With the Fret-King Country Squire we have taken the liberty of respectfully raising the bar, with a 22-fret neck with medium jumbo frets, in one-piece maple, with a deliciously comfortable 60’s shallow ‘C’ profile. The neck utilises a 10” fingerboard radius to facilitate easier string bending, with a slinky, fast, playing action.
In stock mode, the neck mounted humbucker uses only the front coil, giving the selection of sounds expected from this iconic style of guitar; pulling up on the tone control, switches the neck pickup to full humbucking mode, essentially creating two guitars in one.
The fully intonatable Wilkinson® WT3 bridge rounds out a true professional instrument.
An exceptionally versatile ‘workhorse’ for country, blues or rock.
