Combining a pair of soapbar single coil pickups via a three way selector switch, the V65 is capable of shifting between jangly cleans and raking highs to drop tuned distorted riffs and pedal-powered walls of sound; what's more, the inclusion of a traditional, long-arm vibrato system allows for hypnotic pitch manipulation and mesmeric glides between chords. The V65's follow a traditional tonewood combo, with a lightweight alder body and bolt-on hard maple neck providing plenty of glassy top end and solid mids. Couple this with a pair of Wilkinson W90SK P.90 style pickups, and the V65's effortlessly perform musical genres associated with off-set guitars, think Indie, Punk and Garage or indeed Surf where the extra-long arm of the offset vibrato is all so perfect to combine pre and post chord and lead lines bends whilst strumming. But it's the single coil clarity with meaty humbucker characteristics of the Wilkinson W90SK pickups that have helped develop the V65 Series ReIssued guitars as another versatile winner from the Vintage catalogue. With a balanced bass response and extended sweet highs, played clean, the V65's are perfect for crystal clear fingerpicking and warm sweet jazz tones, and with more than enough output to drive crunch and amp distortion channels with an edgy pick attack and classic P.90 singing mids.

Super Guitar of great quality at a low price, I discovered on the internet in 2014 Vintage guitars, I had never tried these guitars, I had a doubt about the great quality, mas I saw videos with artists who use vintage guitars, So that convinced me to buy one a day (I regret not having bought it sooner) I play guitar since 1975, guitars I've tested a lot, I've never had a Gibson LP, but tested several in stores and those of friends too, I dreamed of one day buying one, but the price of a good Gibson Lp has always held me back (and the Gibson Studio LP models have never convinced me) I ended up buying a Vintage V100 LP, I'm really surprised by the great quality guitar, both in terms of construction, marquetry, microphones and also by the keys graphtech (each key has a custom wheel for each string) and these keys are super accurate and hold the tuning very well. I was not expecting for this small price a guitar of such good quality, Because I think that Vintage's LP models are much better than Gibson's under-brand Epiphone guitars, and far superior to Gibson's LP Studio models! A guitar of great quality at a low price! Convinced by Vintage following the purchase of my Vintage V100 (Cherry Sunburts) I just received my new Vintage V65 Reissued Vibrato GB, Who as the LP surprises me by its high quality for this price, also equipped by the keys graphtech, I am 100% convinced by Vintage guitars, Very good manufacture at all levels, I can only recommend Vintage guitars, I said that I also like Gibson, Fender, and I own three SG Gibson and several Fender.
