The Vintage ReIssued V100 solid bodied electric guitar, is now available installed with a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece, constructed from die cast aluminium, for maximum sustain and superior tonal quality.  

This best selling model in a gorgeous translucent Flamed Purpleburst colour highlights the heavily figured tiger striped, flame maple top, offset with contrasting controls, pickups and surrounds.   

The detailed appointments that have made this model popular with guitar players around the world remain, including the unique, evolutionary shaped, bound mahogany body, with its graceful descending bass side shoulder and the ingeniously-designed offset heel, providing improved access to the upper reaches of the fretboard. 

Needless to say with a bound mahogany body, mahogany neck and bound rosewood fingerboard, the Vintage ReIssued V100 offers superior playability and the perfect tonewood combination that’s enhanced by a pair of uncovered Wilkinson MVHZ Double Coils provide this iconic looking electric guitar with enough power to handle any high-gained situation. 

Grover Deluxe tulip machine heads provide smooth, effective action, whilst a Wilkinson Tune-O-Matic bridge enables fine-tuning of each string for superb intonation all over the fretboard, whilst a set of chrome straplocks ensure that your guitar stays safe and secure, no matter how low slung you like to wear it.
