The Vintage V100 ProShop Unique~ Gold Top, has one of the most valid and popular guitar finishes in the history of the electric guitar, and thats quite something. This beautiful solid bodied guitar has been meticulously aged by the ProShop team artisans to emulate modelsfrom that all important icon era.
Such authentic and accurate lacquer cracking has been created by heating the body lacquer and then cooling rapidly with freezer spray where the temperature shock naturally causes the lacquer to expand and crack. Its then in the hands of these master craftsmen to trace out fine detailed cracks with hand tools.
The vintage charm is enhanced further with hardware including pickup covers, bridge and tail-piece given a worn nickel approach to blend into the pre-worn picture.
Aesthetics aside, this is without doubt a performers guitar, with a Vintage soft C profile neck, sleek low action, fingerboard lustre. With a pair of tone filled Wilkinson high output MWVC Double Coil pickups, the Vintage V100 ProShop Unique ~ Gold Top joins force as another hand created one off, ultra realistic, well loved, well played, powerhouse classic from the Vintage ProShop Team.
