Vintage V65 Reissued HT, Tobacco Sunburst Overview
The Vintage V65 Reissued HT is an instrument with a distinctive, individual style and old-school tones. Designed in an offset shape, the V65 HT is reminiscent of guitars that have dominated the independent rock scene. Indeed, its two powerful Wilkinson soapbar style pickups back that up, generating everything from sparkling cleans to meaty, growling distortions. Their P90 style construction gives them a supremely versatile voice, able to respond with the tones that any modern guitarist demands.
And aside from its refined voice, the V65 HT serves up a relaxed and comfortable playing experience on its classic 'soft C' shaped neck and rosewood fretboard. Offering a great, speedy feel, you'll find endless creative freedom on these sleek surfaces. That's accompanied by the dependable and solid performance that the Wilkinson hardware promotes. Designed by guitar guru Trev Wilkinson, the bridge and machine heads combine to guarantee an even string tension and stability throughout. Make an impression with the V65, whether you're blasting out punk rock or strumming soulful blues, this is the guitar to help you stand out.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionCreamy tones through soapbar pickups
The perfect middle ground. These soapbar pickups are designed in a large single coil style, giving them a fatter, more powerful voice than standard single coils, in addition a versatile tuning that lets you access a multitude of genres. Despite this, they're perfect for vintage rock and lower gain indie styles thanks to their creamy, articulate tones. But don't feel restricted, because these soapbar pickups are plenty flexible!
They're thick and defined on clean settings, and when distorted, the Wilkinson soapbars roar with a sharp, punchy voice. Rumbling on drop tunings, and transparently clear on standard cleans, if you're looking for an instrument that can do a bit of everything, these pickups will put you on the path.
A sleek and inviting playing experience
Built for unrestricted riffing. The V65 HT offers a super-fast playability through its slim neck, smooth rosewood fretboard and contoured, double cutaway body. You'll enjoy acres of space on the fretboard thanks to the slim neck profile, letting easily reach those difficult chords and quick lead runs.
Speaking of lead runs, the slick rosewood fretboard presents you with a responsive, snappy surface to speed up your riffs on. With 22 frets to navigate, the V69 lets you manoeuvre up to the high frets with ease thanks to its offset design, so you've got just as much room at the 22nd fret as you do at the first!
Rock ready hardware
Perform with confidence. The V65 is equipped with precision hardware to keep your tuning stable, intonation reliable, and sustain unending. A Wilkinson designed hardtail bridge pairs with Wilkinson vintage-style WJ55 tuners to keep a solid hold on your strings.
And because the bridge is flush to the body and uses a string-through design, you'll get a maximum sustain in each note, with the natural character of the alder wood shining through. But that's not all! With bottom mounted screws it's a breeze to adjust your intonation, so you can always sound your best.
