This striking and versatile guitar features a set of Wilkinson pickups that boast a range of different tones whilst still retaining that iconic 'twang'. Whether you're a blues, rock, or jazz musician, your sound will undoubtedly thrive. Positioned at the bridge there is the WTB, a single coil pickup that delivers vibrant tones reminiscent of '50s rock 'n' roll. Raw, authentic, and with plenty of bite; when you're using this pickup, you'll be sure to make an impact. Located at the neck is the WDG mini double coil humbucker which combines the gleaming high end of a single coil pickup with the warmth of a double coil. This makes for a truly versatile sound that can be utilised by a range of techniques and genres.
If legendary tone isn't enough, the controls on this guitar allow for even more tonal creativity. Explore the possibilities of each pickup or combine them any way you please using the 3-way pickup selector. The choice is all yours. Better still, sculpt with incredible precision via the tone and volume controls.
A neck with infinite potential
If you’re going to show off unashamedly, you'll want a slick neck and fretboard that will do you justice. Crafted from maple, the neck is not only sturdy, but also improves tonal qualities with great effect. It is the ideal wood for gigging with thanks to its high density which lends itself to quick note decay, resulting in minimal feedback and glistening clarity. Even when you're strumming, every note will ring out separately and gloriously. Mounted onto such an exquisite neck is the lignum rosa fretboard, another enticing feature of this guitar. Its smooth finish accommodates anything from ferocious riffing to magnificent blues solos.
The ultimate tonewood combo
Crafted from American alder, the body of the V72 Custom Spec TL showcases a semi-hollow design that allows for wondrous, full-bodied sound. Every note will be amazingly defined whilst a sea of resonance flows beneath thanks to the 'F' shaped sound hole. Built for exhilarating performances, the combination of alder and maple projects the higher frequencies with excellent sizzle and ensures the low end has brilliant bite. Deliver a unique performance in which you look stunning too, the tobacco sunburst finish will be sure to catch the eyes of your audience.
Precise adjustability
An innovative feature of the V72 is the Wilkinson WTB Intonatable bridge. It allows for individual string intonations thanks to the classic 3-saddle design with staggered brass saddles, so you know that every note will sound absolutely perfect. This also means you can adjust the guitar to thrive off any playing style. The baseplate is constructed out of steel, increasing stability and robustness as well as ensuring the bridge pickup delivers magnificent sound.
