Vintage V65H ReIssued, Tobacco Sunburst

Vintage V65H ReIssued, Tobacco Sunburst Overview

Existing on the fringes of guitar society, offset designs have always been favoured by those players who go against the traditions, clichés, and overbearing diatonic regulations of the rock world. Angular, chaotic, inspirational, and wonderful, just like the sounds it produces, the brand new Vintage V65HBLD is the perfect instrument for those players who seek to find, or make, something different and exciting.

An elegant Alder body provides excellent resonance, tone and ‘correct weight’ comfort, and due to Vintage's new and unique offset heel, much improved access to the upper reaches of the fantastic one piece Mahogany neck. A classic Vintage ‘soft C’ profile provides instant comfort, speed, and accuracy, while the 10" radius Lignum Rosa™ fingerboard, with 22 Medium Jumbo frets, not only enhances this, but also gives outstanding tonal transfer, responsiveness and durability.

Pickups are two Wilkinson Soapbar single coils, which provide fat and articulate cleans and cutting, punchy overdriven tones. Easily manipulated by the independent master Volume and Tone pots, and the accompanying three position pickup selector, the sounds produced by this guitar could easily be described as "versatile", but as any offset player will tell you - that seems to be a mere understatement.

Dispensing with the trem systems typically associated with this type of guitar, Vintage have instead chosen a trusty Wilkinson six saddle hardtail bridge, enabling reliable intonation for each string, and superb tuning stability even in the most explosive circumstances. Tuning stability is further strengthened by Wilkinson's excellent WJ44 machine heads, and a well cut, smooth, and precise Graphtech NuBone nut.

Features

What Vintage say:

A stalwart of the independent rock scene, the offset electric has established itself as the quintessential, iconic alternative guitar. Angular and chaotic, just like the sounds it contains, the brand new Vintage V65H is the perfect instrument for those players who operate on the fringes of guitar society; the six string of choice for the anti-traditionalist.

Combining a pair of soapbar single coil pickups via a three way selector switch, the V65H is capable of shifting between jangly cleans and raking highs to drop tuned distorted riffs and pedal-powered walls of sound. For the guitarist who flies in the face of convention, the Vintage V65H is here to help you make beautiful noise.
