The V6MRLB 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.
