Whether the appeal is for see-through or solid colour finishes, you have to admit, the Vintage© ProShop V65PU2405 with a stunning Inca Silver Metallic finish and amber tint, radiates pure class.
It is of course another showcase model for the legendary Vintage ProShop team of luthiers, highly skilled craftsman who create stunning instruments from the ever-popular Vintage ICON and ReIssued Series of electric guitars and basses.
We understand how that’s hard to believe, as these models are already classics in their own right and, popular with musicians all over the world for their superior tonewood construction, exceptional playability, beautiful sound and superb aesthetics.
With a custom 3-ply white scratchplate off-set with cream pickup covers, control knobs and chrome hardware, the Vintage ProShop V65PU2405 not only replicates the unending appeal of the offset bodied guitar, whilst pleasing armies of cult followers of this classic, timeless trendsetter, it’s the sonic versatility via a pair of Wilkinson W90SK Soapbar pickups that also make this superb model a real problem solver in the studio, and live environment.
It’s the single coil clarity and big meaty double coil characteristics of these pickups that have helped develop the V65 Series guitars as another versatile winner from the Vintage catalogue, effortlessly shifting between jangly cleans and soaring highs, perfect for crystal clear fingerpicking and warm sweet jazz tones.
There’s more than enough to drive crunch and amp distortion channels with an edgy pick attack and classic Soapbar singing mids, whilst the long-arm vibrato system allows for accurate hypnotic pitch manipulation and mesmeric glides between chords.
The Vintage© ProShop V65PU2405 Inca Silver is another hand created one-off, ultra-realistic guitar from the Vintage ProShop Team.
