Vintage V6M24LB electric guitar Laguna Blue

General

The Vintage brand has been a big name amongst budget-conscious guitarists for quite some time now. The V6 is their alternative to the American ST-model, and now Vintage has added to that family with the V6M24 model! The V6M24LB in Laguna Blue is a true Super-ST in every way. It features two powerful humbuckers and a 24-fret neck. The alder body is shaped in such a way that you can easily reach the higher frets on the neck. Even with heavy use of the tremolo, the V6M24 won't go out of tune, thanks to the Wilkinson locking tuners.

Vintage V6M24LB: built to perform

Thanks to its solid alder body, the V6M24LB has a warm and well-balanced core sound, while the 24-fret maple fretboard adds a pleasant dose of bite and shimmer. Two Wilkinson humbuckers take care of the amplified sound, with powerful lows, crisp mids and sharp trebles. Like any Super-ST worth its salt, this guitar was stripped of all superfluous luxury features. You won't find an extra single-coil pickup or coil split functionality on this guitar. Instead, it's fitted with medium jumbo frets and locking tuners. In short, the Vintage V6M24LB is built for speed.

The Vintage brand

Vintage's history can be roughly divided into two periods. In the early days, they made cheap copies that lived up to all the negative stereotypes about low-budget instruments. However, that changed drastically when Trevor Wilkinson, famed for his affordable yet high-quality guitar parts, attached his name to the Vintage brand. Not only did Vintage's hardware division receive a shot of quality, the wood selection and construction methods were also vastly improved. Since then, Vintage have become known for their excellent price to quality ratio. The brand has certainly been holding its own among the ferocious competition in this price range.
