Vintage VS4 ReIssued Bass, Boulevard Black Overview
With its slightly offset Cherry Red Mahogany body providing resonance, tone and increased access to the top of its 20 fret Mahogany neck, the Vintage VS4 plays and sounds like a bass guitar way beyond its price tag.
Two pickups - one MMHB and one HB - produce a deep and thudding growl, which can easily be manipulated by way of the simple controls (two volume, one tone), while a super smooth and well cut GraphTech NuBone nut ensures excellent tuning stabilty - enhanced by Wilkinson's WJBL200 machine head.
Whether your bass provides the bedrock on which your power trio's sound is built, or your upper fret, single note forays are keeping jaws on the floor, the VS4CR is ready to rock and roll whenever you are. Play on.
FeaturesWhat Vintage say:
Featuring a Mahogany body with an ingeniously designed drop shoulder and offset heel to provide improved access to the upper frets, the VS4CR Bass not only provides thudding bottom end, but allows you to venture up to the dusty reaches of the 20 fret Mahogany set neck too.
The instrument's bass response and lower register harmonics are maximised by the inclusion of a Graphtech NuBone nut, while a set of Wilkinson® WJBL200 machine heads keep your tuning locked in for the night.
The VS4CR is outfitted with a set of chrome double coil pickups; a jumbo double coil at the neck and a mini double coil in the bridge position. The smooth and rounded tones at the neck are contrasted by the cut and thrust of the bridge pickup, which provides enough articulation and clarity to put you centre stage for your bass solos.
