The Vintage® V6 Series features the new Wilkinson® WVC original specification vibrato featuring authentic bent steel saddles for that classic sparkle and tone, precision machined pivot points for total “return to pitch” accuracy, and a stagger drilled sustain block to prevent string hang-up. A vintage bend, push-in arm completes this definitive vibrato system.

Attention to authentic tone continues, with the use of a matched, calibrated set of Wilkinson® Alnico single coil pickups; using a reverse wound, reverse polarity middle pickup for clarity and dynamics and featuring staggered edge, staggered pole pieces for focus and definition.

Featuring one volume and two tone controls, the five way lever switch and control circuitry are configured for maximum tone, evenness of response and output for supreme versatility.

Comfort contours and radiused edges give the body a familiarity whilst the vintage profile neck and 10” radius 22 fret, overhung fingerboard give an instantly familiar and comfortable feel.

Wilkinson® Vintage tuners featuring the patent pending E-Z-LOK™ string lock system, quick and easy to use, with no tools, provides for hugely enhanced tuning stability, with super
quick string change times.

Staggered string posts, providing the correct break angles across the top nut, ensure accurate tuning, correct string tensions for enhanced feel and aid tuning stability.

Wilkinson® WTB Bridge
This classic 3-saddle design has been around for over 50 years and is still regarded as the ultimate ‘tone machine’. Staggered brass saddles offer individual string intonation never before available in a design of this type, still widely regarded as the‘tone machine’. The baseplate itself is a faithful reproduction of the original, made from steel, very important in a bridge of this style due to the tonal effect it has on the magnetic field of the pickup
mounted in it.

Benchmarking; Setting the Standard

On the tremolo-equipped VRS guitars, the exclusive ‘wave’ knife edge design gives this sleek bridge the smoothest action of any of any fulcrum vibrato available anywhere. With a stamped steel ‘heat hardened’ top plate, the Wilkinson® vibrato also offers solid stainless steel saddles, push-in tremolo arm and the Wilkinson® ‘stagger drilled’ block for unrivalled tuning stability.
A truly ultra-modern look with classic values.

The fixed bridge VRS110STS guitar features a tidy and efficient intonated wrap-over bridge/tailpiece combination. This robust style of bridge system has seen a resurgence of popularity in the last few years thanks to its authentic tonal quality, the simplicity and effectiveness of the original 50’s design possessing a unique and individual appeal.

The tonal powerhouse of the VRS guitars is the Wilkinson® double coil pickups. Meticulously designed by Trevor, their classically- voiced, meaty double coil tone will capture the heart of even the most sceptical of guitarists. Using straightforward volume and tone controls with a 3-way toggle switch, these versatile guitars move from fruity-toned neck pickup sounds to flat-out bridge pickup excitement – VRS guitars pack tone with punch!



Sumptuous carved tops of striking flame maple with matching
headstock facing, radiused edges and neatly scalloped body
cutaways add an air of aspiration and sophistication to the VRS series.

Wilkinson Vintage tuners feature the patent pending E-Z-LOK™
string lock system. Neat, quick and easy to use and with no
tools necessary, these unique tuners enhance tuning stability.

A hardtail with class – compensated thru-body stringing adds extra tonal
depth and authority to the tone of the V8TSB, before the strings pass over the securely face-mounted
traditional fully adjustable
Tune-O-Matic bridge.
VJ6
This pickup layout is highly favoured by many working guitarists for its impressive
tonal range, capable of moving from a variety of funky single coil tones to the awesome articulation of a bridge humbucker at the flick of the pickup selector's 5-way lever.
