Vintage V6M Re-Issued Electric Guitar – Sunburst Finish – Great Condition

The Vintage V6M Re-Issued electric guitar is a refined take on a timeless classic, blending vintage-correct aesthetics with modern playability and dependable hardware. Designed by Trev Wilkinson and the UK Vintage design team, the V6M delivers the look, feel, and tone players expect from a traditional S-style instrument, while incorporating smart upgrades that enhance tuning stability, intonation, and overall performance.

At the heart of the V6M is a resonant American alder body, contoured for comfort and balanced weight, finished in an attractive sunburst that highlights its classic roots. The guitar is loaded with a trio of Wilkinson WVS Alnico V pickups, offering a wide tonal range with clear, sparkling highs, full and musical mids, and a warm, rounded low end. The reverse-wound, reverse-polarity middle pickup provides hum-canceling operation in positions 2 and 4, while the Wilkinson double-coil bridge pickup delivers higher output with reduced noise for more powerful tones.

The Wilkinson WVC vibrato bridge is a standout feature, engineered with a stagger-drilled block to improve intonation and enhance return-to-pitch accuracy without sacrificing classic vibrato feel. High-grade steel saddles add snap and clarity, and the push-in vibrato arm with adjustable tension allows players to dial in the perfect response. Wilkinson WJ55 E-Z-Lok tuning machines further improve tuning stability, with staggered post heights ensuring proper string angle and smooth vibrato action.

The hard rock maple neck features a comfortable Vintage “soft C” profile, paired with a 10" radius fingerboard and 22 medium frets for smooth playability across the entire neck. A 43mm graphite nut reduces friction and supports stable tuning during bends and vibrato use. Controls are laid out in a familiar and intuitive format, with a master volume, neck tone control, and a custom-mod tone control that affects both the middle and bridge pickups, offering added tonal flexibility.

This guitar is in great condition, showing only minor finish wear and a few light scratches on the front, consistent with careful use and normal handling. It remains fully functional, well-set-up, and ready to play.
