MPN: PLVINTV100-JY
£225.00
This pre loved Vintage V100 in Sunburst is in good condition. It has a few dings and chips on the body and headstock, some discolouration on a couple of the fret inlays, but most noticably there is extensive scratching on the pickup covers (pictured). These issues are purely cosmetic and the guitar functions as intended.
Mahogany foundation with a carved maple cap and flame maple veneer, offering well-balanced resonance, warmth, and just the right weight.
The guitar showcases a unique body shape featuring a descending bass-side shoulder and an offset heel to enhance comfort and upper-fret access.

Fingerboard: Lignum Rosa or rosewood with a 12″ radius, providing a smooth feel across 22 medium-jumbo frets on a 24.75″ scale.
Nut: Graphtech NuBone (around 43 mm width) for low friction and tuning stability.
Bridge & Tailpiece: Wilkinson Tune-O-Matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece ensures stable tuning and precise intonation.
Tuning Machines: Wilkinson “tulip” deluxe tuners tulip heads offer reliable tuning performance.
Pickups: Fitted with a pair of Wilkinson Double Coils (MWVC) delivering rich, singing tones with good dynamic response.
Controls: Equipped with the standard layout—2× volume, 2× tone, and a 3-way pickup selector toggle—for versatility.
