Vintage VVB4 Violin Bass, Antique Sunburst Overview
Harking back to the heady days of the early sixties; a time of mandarin collars, cellar clubs, drainpipe trousers, winklepicker shoes and free spirits which would set the musical world alight, the Vintage VVB4 Violin Bass sounds as iconic as it looks. Brought to life by a pair of custom designed balanced Wilkinson WDB pickups, it's weighty low-end frequencies and deep penetrating, percussive violin bass sonics are in complete contrast to its light weight and super slim, sleek neck.

What Vintage say:
The Vintage ReIssued VVB4SB, harks back to the heady days of the early sixties, a time of mandarin collars, coffee bars, drainpipe trousers, winklepicker shoes and free spirits which set the musical world alight.
The double bound spruce top, flamed maple hollow body and 22 fret maple set-neck provide the platform for that unmistakably hollow body, ‘60's Britpop tone, brought to life by a pair of custom designed balanced Wilkinson WDB pickups which further augment those unmistakable, deep penetrating, percussive violin bass sonics. How cool it looks; with period accurate twin pickup configuration, open geared pearloid button tuners, aged 'teacup' control knobs in a pearloid control plate with rhythm, bass and treble switches and an aged pearloid pickguard.
