VSA535-12
12-STRING JOINS VINTAGE ELECTRICS
Play guitar? Want to sound like an orchestra on your own?
Here's how - buy a semi-acoustic 12 string and your sound
will chime out with sweetness and light across the nation,
with harmonics and sustain like you've never heard before.
Even otherwise easily-alarmed old women and small children
will nod and smile in admiration of your total musicality
and understanding of harmonic creation...
Big semi-acoustics
are certainly versatile guitars, with a connection right back
to the early jazz guitars, though the slim-body versions offer
a truly resonant and gutsy sound with a sweet acoustic tonality
in there too. The new f-hole bodied Vintage VSA535-12 12-string
offers the best of both worlds, without a doubt – offering
the drop dead good looks of those era-defining 1950's/ 60’s
guitars, the VSA535-12 is semi-acoustic in construction thanks
to a solid central section of wood running along the middle
of the double edgebound body, firmly anchoring the twin tone-filled
Wilkinson MWVC humbuckers and bridge assembly.
True to the constructional tradition of this style of big
semi, the VSA’s carefully arched front and back body
is a traditional maple laminate matched to a slim 22 fret
maple neck with a smooth rosewood fingerboard, the neck set
rigidly set into the big body for maximum strength and stability
- and just check out that vibrant 60’s style sunburst.
Rock solid
Tune-o-matic bridge and stop tailpiece arrangement too, and
traditional four-rotary control grouping – two volume,
two tone, with 3-way pickup selector.
A huge sound for a most non-huge price - £429.00,
and that gets you the case as well.
