The V59 ICON is capable of providing a multitude of musical tones from a simple array of pickups and controls and often the answer, when we are stuck for song writing inspiration or to complete that all so important lead line. Offered in Distressed Sunburst and Distressed Black, the V59 Series models with double bound Eastern poplar bodies, hard maple necks and fingerboards, look for all the world like they’ve spent years in the studio and on the road. Double bound Eastern poplar body provides resonance, tone and ‘correct weight’ comfort, enhanced with correctly radiused contoured body. The Wilkinson WTB intonatable bridge featured on the Vintage V59 is a masterpiece of design, eliminating age-old intonation problems often found in three saddle, fixed bridge designs. Pair of Wilkinson Single Coils for traditional tones combined with contemporary power, courtesy of a WVTN pickup at the neck and a WVOB in the bridge position. Single master Volume and Tone controls with three-way pickup selector switch. Wilkinson Deluxe WJ55S machine heads. Simple and effective for increased tuning stability. Maple neck with classic Vintage ‘soft C’ profile for instant comfort, speed, accuracy and great feel. Traditional 10" radius fingerboard provides positive feel and superior playability. 43mm Graphite nut. 25.5" / 648mm scale length.
