Does anyone have one of these and if so, what might it be worth if in very good condition?

Sorry for the delay, I've been on holiday. There is an auction for one right now, ending soon so it'll be a good guide for the worth of yours.

I'm afraid the seller (a 'shop') has gone for the "several shots of diiirty giirl with extensive cleavage holding guitar on bed" sales approach and the - frankly scary - offer that punters can request more pics of "anything in particular" . :shock: But, if you can manage to avert your gaze from the lewd pics, a completed ebay auction is always a good indication of how much you might get.

I bet there are now a few people clicking on this link, despite having no interest in the price of a Ventura :lol:

EDIT: Oh crikey, I've just realized that all pics have the "hover with mouse to zoom and enlarge" facility. :shock: :shock:

So the Ventura sold for $316, meh. The girl wasn't very impressive, hardly worth the effort of clicking the link, not much of interest in this one huh?

I didn't keep an eye, as I returned abroad and came home to standard w/e AOL 'service' of tabs refusing to update - even though signal strength is good. Mon-Thur only with AOL.

Anyhoo, $316 seems on the low side for a good, 70s Japanese acoustic. Perhaps the sales technique was counter-productive.
