The Vintage® V6 ProShop® Custom Build LV6PC2767 authentically aged SRV style tribute guitar. Featuring a 3-tone tobacco sunburst finish with a cellulose lacquer distressed top and gold hardware.
Neck and mid Wilkinson WVC Gold pickups give a perfect balance between lo-noise the revered Wilkinson WVC original specification vibrato featuring authentic bent steel saddles for that classic sparkle and tone; precision machined pivot points for total -return to pitch’ accuracy and a stagger-drilled sustain block to prevent string hang-up. An adjustable, -vintage bend’ push-in arm completes this definitive vibrato system. Attention to authentic tone continues with the use of a matched and calibrated set of Wilkinson Alnico V single coil pickups, using a reverse wound/reverse polarity middle pickup for clarity and dynamics and feature true vintage-style chamfered edge polepieces. With one volume and two tone controls, the 5-way lever switch and control circuitry are configured for maximum tone, evenness of response and output for supreme versatility.
The Wilkinson vibrato bridge, meanwhile, features an innovative stagger-drilled block which radically improves the guitar's intonation, whilst maintaining incredible return-to-pitch accuracy.
The LV6PC2767 has been authentically aged and reliced, built and hand crafted by the Luthiers at ProShop giving a unique look and feel.
Whether you're searching for your first guitar or your last, every Vintage ProShop is designed and hand-built by our Luthiers to your exact specification and will be unique to you.
