In keeping with the true spirit of Day of the Dead, this aptly named guitar features unique, bespoke graphic designs that celebrate life and death, a joyous event with multi-coloured artefacts that has a long history within Mexican heritage.

With custom control knobs featuring skull and cross bone designs and Lucky 13 logo, this ProShop guitar is far from spooky or gruesome, look closely, these happy skull graphics are among the most iconic and recognised symbols that have inspired poets, writers and musicians in Latin America and globally for many years.

The Vintage ProShop Day Of The Dead is based on the Vintage V100MRBK, a stunning guitar from the very popular Vintage ICON Series.A classic in itself, the V100MRBK is very much admired for its seriously authentic, distressed aesthetics, sound and playability, a model thats pride of place in professional guitar players guitar racks around the world.

With the distressed black overspray revealing areas of the original Sunburst finish and aged black hardware, the Vintage ProShop Day Of The Dead is certainly a striking guitarin more ways than one.

Stunning looks aside, the Vintage ProShop team have rewired the electrics to include a Kill Switch that completely cuts off the signal, to both Wilkinson WHHB high output humbucking pickups.

Whilst these pickups are renowned for their power and exceptional tone, now, with a Kill Switch in the circuit, sustaining solo notes and chords can be interrupted with each rhythmic touch of the switch, to create staccato, pulsating, oscillating sounds that are incredibly effective when used with effects.

The Vintage ProShop Day Of The Dead solid bodied electric guitar, not only highlights the skills of these incredible luthiers, its also a showcase for their uncanny knack to dig deep within their imaginations, to once again create a seriously cool, one-off custom Vintage ProShop guitar.
