Constructed using genuine tone woods, heavy duty, aged Wilkinson hardware, and authentic recipe pickups, Vintage ICON Series electric guitars are imbued with character, charisma and cool.
With its worn-to-the-wood faded finish and distressed hardware, the Vintage V100MRTSB ICON has all the hallmarks of a guitar with a thousand road tales to tell – the good news is all of that mojo comes fresh out of the box.
For enhanced playability the Vintage V100 features a unique evolutionary body shape with a graceful descending bass side shoulder and an ingeniously designed offset heel providing improved access to the ‘dusty-end’ of the guitar's upper frets and opening up your playing.
A Vintage ICON Series electric already looks like your lifetime companion; the best part is, your journey is just beginning. Play on.
