View Full DescriptionSlick playability
Get groovy. The VJ74 Reissued seeks to make your basslines flow like water through its incredibly smooth neck. Made from hard rock maple and joined to the body through a bolt-on joint, you can expect seamless manoeuvrability to let you navigate the 20 frets with ease.
And speaking of frets, the snappy maple fingerboard hosts 20 medium profile frets to add comfort, accuracy, and a positive feel to your playing. It's curved into a 12" radius and features a choice tonewood for superb tonal transfer and durability.
Ultimate tonal clarity
Trev Wilkinson is a man who understands pickups. And the VJ74 features two of his own design! The WOJB single coils are designed and voiced to fill your notes with articulation and clarity, offering enough high end for distinct slaps, mid-range for warmth and presence, and low-end for gloriously rich bass patterns.
Exemplary hardware
Hosting a series of thoughtfully designed components, it's easy to see why the VJ75 is a favourite amongst touring professionals. A Wilkinson designed, four-saddle compensated brass bridge provides improved intonation across the length of the fretboard, and a strong anchor point for your strings.
Alongside that, a graphite nut and Wilkinson machine heads complete the balanced string action, ensuring a stable, reliable tuning and frictionless string vibrations. The nut has been precision cut to cut out buzz and maximise the detail out of your notes. With these thoughtful appointments working in unison, the VJ75 delivers a performance you can count on, each and every time.
