Vintage V65V ReIssued, Vintage White

Vintage V65V ReIssued, Vintage White Overview

Existing on the fringes of guitar society, offset designs have always been favoured by those players who go against the traditions, clichés, and diatonic regulations of the rock world. Angular, chaotic, inspirational, and wonderful, just like the sounds it produces, the brand new Vintage V65V is the perfect instrument for those players who seek to find, or make, something different and exciting.

An elegant and highly resonant Alder body provides excellent 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 just seems to be an understatement.

This model features Vintage's offset vibrato unit combined with a Tune-O-Matic bridge to provide pitch manipulation with superb tuning stability, and adjustable intonation for each string.Tuning stability is further strengthened by Wilkinson's excellent WJ44 machine heads, and a well cut, smooth, and precise Graphtech NuBone nut.

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 V65V 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 V65V is capable of shifting between jangly cleans and raking highs to drop tuned distorted riffs and pedal-powered walls of sound; what's more, the inclusion of a traditional, long-arm vibrato system allows for hypnotic pitch manipulation and mesmeric glides between chords. For the guitarist who flies in the face of convention, the Vintage V65V is here to help you make beautiful noise.
