The Vintage ReIssued Series V6JMH combines the very best of time-served aesthetics and forward-thinking design ingenuity to summon up six-string voodoo.
A left hand neck and inverted Wilkinson Alnico V WVS pickups give the guitar both a characteristic appearance and a distinctive tonal combination, with more bass in the bridge pickup and a greater treble attack in the neck pickup compared to a standard pickup configuration.
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.
Whether you're searching for your first guitar or your last, every member of the Vintage ReIssued Series is a keeper. Play on.
