VSS Candy Apple Red Medium Relic ‘60s
£1595
Our Vintage Series Candy Apple Red Medium Relic ‘60s S-Style takes you back in time, with a deep contoured body in alder, nitrocellulose lacquer finish, 3-ply aged Mint Green pickguard and tremolo. With indications of the ages, such as discoloration of plastic parts and metal hardware showing moderate signs of oxidation, the Candy Apple Red nitro is worn, with the exposed wood evoking its journey and weathering though time.
Other features include our Vintage "C" 1-piece maple neck, 9.5" radius with rolled fretboard edges, rolled and polished Vintage Jumbo frets, bone nut and vintage-style machine heads. A trio of single-coil '60s pickups, hand-wound to vintage specifications with reverse-wound/reverse polarity middle pickup, ensures this guitar retains the classic sound of the era.
