LEFTIES ADDED TO VINTAGE RANGE
Following on from the recent Vintage news item that one of
the most popular guitars in the range - the pre-aged Lemon
Drop – was to become available in left hand format,
comes the exciting news that more of the most popular Vintage
electrics are now to be available in – hooray –
left hand format!
Right,
so pick yourself up off the floor and let’s have a look
at what you can now rush off to your local music store and
order – at these prices, you can’t argue that
it’s not been worth the wait....
VINTAGE
LV100CS CHERRY SUNBURST
If you prefer your guitars to look ‘as new’ and
not completely road worn, then you might well plump for the
very new ‘n’ shiny Cherry Sunburst left hand Vintage
V100. Once again, a high level of specification means that
a maple-capped solid mahogany body with set-in mahogany neck,
Wilkinson authentic tulip-style tuners, Wilkinson pickups
and hardware, etc.
VINTAGE
LV6MRBK ICON BOULEVARD BLACK
Boulevard Black has proved itself to be a popular option in
the Icon range, looking as it does like an honest-to-goodness,
long-time hard working well-scarred electric guitar. Perhaps
even that one that was once owned by Britain’s #1 guitar
god. Perhaps. Anyway, lots of pattern scarring, and check
the wear on that maple neck! Again, like its right-handed
brother, the new left hand option is filled with Wilkinson
goodies to make sure it plays and sounds as good as it looks.
VINTAGE
LV6 ICON SUNSET SUNBURST
Another failsafe colour option for this type of guitar is
the good old 3-tone finish, Sunset Sunburst which somehow
always manages to look as good ‘distressed’ as
it does when it, too, is new and shiny. Both options, shiny
and now distressed.
VINTAGE
LVS6VW VINTAGE WHITE
The VS6 electric guitar remains one of the long time best-sellers
in the Vintage electric guitar range, and rightly so –
it looks great, feels great to play and sounds terrific! The
newest addition to the right-handed VS6 line-up was the classic
late 60’s/70’s-looking Vintage White version introduced
towards the end of last year. With gold hardware helping to
make this a distinguished-looking instrument, it’s already
proving as popular as its established VS6 brethren. Cool,
and here is the left hand version looking just as good.
VINTAGE
LVJ96MRJP ICON FRETLESS SUNBURST BASS GUITAR
And no way do left handed bass players get forgotten, either.
This here is one of the funkiest basses in the Vintage range.
Like the Lemon Drop V100, this is also a tribute instrument,
with some neat detailing touches. Pattern scarring, fret markers
and fret lines still there though the frets have been ‘removed’,
scratchplate also ‘removed’ with location holes
still present, leaving only the chrome control plate. It's
all here detail-wise.
