The
V6MRSSB has the appearance of a battle-hardened road warrior, but comes
equipped with the added benefit of some modern embellishments. A trio
of Wilkinson WVS vintage-voiced Alnico V pickups give the guitar the
perfect balance between scorching highs, rich mids and plummy low end.
The Wilkinson vibrato bridge, meanwhile, features a stagger-drilled
block which radically improves the guitar's intonation, whilst
maintaining incredible return-to-pitch accuracy.
Good things come to those who wait – but who has the time for that?
The Vintage ICON Series replicates the beautiful, worn-in look and feel
of an instrument that has paid its dues, without investing the
lifetime's worth of woodshedding, rehearsing, performing and travel.
This is a guitar that already looks like your lifetime companion; the
best part is your journey is just beginning. Play on.
