“I've taken this guitar into
numerous recording sessions
and people are amazed –
they think it's a really expensive
custom shop job!
Never judge a book by its cover:
a great guitar is a great guitar!”
“The bridge pickup
barks and growls
and the neck unit
is blues rock heaven.”

In terms of looks, attitude and performance, few guitars can
match the out and out appeal of the Vintage V100.
From the rocking zebra humbuckers and pure swagger of the
ReIssued V100AFD Paradise through to the ICON Lemon Drop's
battle-scarred body and wonderfully out of phase tones, there's
something here for every taste and style of musician.
Offering an extraordinarily high level of specification, the build
quality and constructional detail of the Vintage V100 includes a
solid mahogany body and neck mated in true ‘set neck’ fashion
10
for maximum tone-enhancing rigidity – with an all-new offset
neck heel joint and body shape that make accessing those
upper frets a piece of cake. An accurately-carved, gently arched
body top adds to the V100’s distinctive look. The mahogany
and maple tonewoods are the ideal recipe for the kind of sounds
that this style of guitar is renowned for – smoky, sultry,
sweet-toned bluesy licks with a warm jazzy feel from the neck
pickup help soothe the soul with an emotional calm.
Charging to the other extreme with a flick of the 3-way selector
switch allows the back pickup to rage and rampage through
