Vintage V80 Reissued Bass, Golden Amber Overview
Featuring a highly resonant Basswood body, the Vintage V80 Reissued Bass produces all the tones you'd expect from such a contemporary design, and much more. This excellently crafted and ‘correct weight’ comfortable body is coupled with a superbly playable Canadian Maple neck; comfort, speed, accuracy and a positive feel are further enhanced by the superb 24 fret fingerboard.
Providing an ideal mix of depth and tone is one Wilkinson Platinum Series WJM pickup - a clever crossbreed of traditional double and single coil design that can be switched between the two via an ingenious roll-control, which gradually rolls out the fat double coil to leave the bright, punchy, and glorious single coil. Fine tuning of intonation, excellent tone transfer, and reliable tuning stability are provided by way of a Wilkinson® Adjustable WBBC bridge - WJBL750 machine heads further enhance this stability to create a reliable, attractive, great sounding, and extremely playable bass guitar.
Specification:Whether you're searching for your first guitar or your last, the V80 Reissued Bass is a keeper. Play on.
