Looking stunning, with a striking two-tone Silverburst finish and contrasting aesthetics that include a black scratchplate, black controls, black open pickups and surrounds and chrome hardware, this beautiful guitar is built on a solid foundation of classic Vintage designs, uniting all the innovative appointments within playability and tone that has made the V100 itself, a firm favourite with guitar players around the world.
Beneath this gorgeous Silverburst finish the V100 features a one-piece, mahogany neck, bound rosewood fingerboard and balanced mahogany body with solid maple cap, while a graceful descending bass side shoulder and an ingeniously-designed offset heel, provides improved access to the upper reaches of the fretboard.
For traditional tones combined with contemporary power, a pair of Wilkinson WOHHb Double Coil pickup at the neck and bridge positions, provide exceptional versatility. Grover® tulip machine heads provide simple, effective action for maximum tuning stability, while the Wilkinson T.O.M. bridge enables fine-tuning of each string for superb intonation all over the fretboard.
The Vintage ReIssued Series V100 combines a build of excellent tonewoods, premium hardware and electrics, a solid bodied electric guitar that almost plays itself, finished in this eye catching Silverburst finish.
