The Vintage ProShop Unique V100PU1600 Nebula, is a unique instrument, built by the UK ProShop team and showcasing their talents to the full and also features the work of acclaimed British pickup maestro Tim Mills and his fanatical team at Bare Knuckle Pickups.
Guardians of the gorgeous and outrageous finish, the ProShop team have created a bespoke coruscating ‘burst of multiple colours, brilliant, ever shifting, and reflective of the depths of the universe from whence comes we know not what…
Nebula features:
Body:
With a Mahogany body providing signature resonance, tone, ‘correct weight’ and comfort, Nebula is beautified with a stellar burst of the three fundamental colours, red, green, and blue in metallic gloss to create a galactic panorama, interspersed with dappled stars, all contained within a black hole edging and solid cream binding.
With a matching matt finish headstock and Pickguard, Nebula is one of the most unique pieces the UK ProShop has created.
The Vintage ProShop Nebula features the Vintage evolutionary V100 body shape, with a graceful descending bass side shoulder and an ingeniously-designed offset heel providing improved access to the upper reaches of the fretboard.
Bridge:
Wilkinson T.O.M. enables fine-tuning of each string for superb intonation all over the fretboard.
Pickups:
A set of the truly outstanding Bare Knuckle “The Mule” pickups takes Nebula into warp space in an instant. With classic 'Patent Applied For' vintage tone, and exceptionally balanced frequency response and power enough for super expressive playing. Built and voiced as faithful reproductions of the best sounding late '59 PAFs with a differing number of turns of vintage correct 42 AWG plain enamel wire on each coil, The Mule exhibits outstanding clarity and huge dynamic range. Solid nickel silver baseplate and covers, butyrate bobbins, maple spacers, nickel-plated slugs and Fillister no.5 pole screws, with sand cast Alnico IV magnets all give The Mule faster response in the bass, fuller mids and better control of the highs. Even at low levels of gain, smooth harmonic feedback which is full of overtones is possible, while clean sounds have depth and unmistakable vintage character, resulting in an expressive, clear tone which will drive amps commandingly into overdrive when required.
Nebula would not be complete without her unique Vintage designed, Bare Knuckle phaser engraved, “Burnt Chrome” solid nickel silver pickup covers depicting the anonymous and enigmatic language of the crop circle, the message from Nebula is that she rocks
