Vintage V6JMH Reissued, Olympia White 'Fillmore'

Full Description

World class tone

The V6JMH comes equipped with a matched set of Wilkinson single-coils. Theses pickups are reverse mounted into a left-handed configuration, which provides a unique tone with the pole pieces in the reverse order for an authentic sound. The bridge pickup's reversed mounting moves the treble pole pieces away from the bridge for a sweeter tone, while the bass pole pieces are close to the bridge for more bite.

It also comes with a 5-way switch, which provides access to a classic range of tones, including all the popular combined-coil sounds, ideal for rock, blues, funk, country, and much more. These pickups make the most of the tonal potential from the V6JMH's open-sounding and resonant alder body, with a dynamic tone that brings out all the nuances of your playing and can traverse the genres.

Sculpted for perfection

In contrast to the V6JMH's vintage looks and tone, the neck features a modern 12'' fingerboard radius, which provides excellent balance across the strings, along with the ability to set up a low string action with no risk of the strings "choking" when you play string bends. Its slim neck sits easily in your hand, while the low-profile neck joint and double cutaway assists with top-fret access for high range solos. This playability gives you the feel of a modern instrument with the looks and sounds of a classic guitar.

The perfection doesn't stop there though. Its iconic double cutaway design gives easy access to the top frets, so you'll have no problem reaching the top notes during solos, while the smooth body contours give a comfortable playing feel whether stood up or sat down. The reverse headstock and reverse left-handed pickup configuration pay tribute to an iconic guitarist from the rock and roll hall of fame.

Premium hardware

Like all Vintage guitars, the V6JMH features Wilkinson-designed hardware, built on years of industry experience. The WVC vibrato bridge comes designed with a traditional 6-saddle design, made with bent-steel saddles and 6 screw pivots for full adjustability and a smooth action. This is then complemented with Wilkinson WJ55 patented E-Z-Lok tuners, which offer a simple locking action for quick and stable tuning. A graphite nut also assists with tuning by providing a friction-free platform for the strings to pass over when bending strings and using the whammy bar.
