VINTAGE V100 ICON Electric Guitar ~ Distressed Lemon Drop

This is a real gem of a guitar ! Needs minor tweaking ,very minor tweaks to get it as I would like,but perfectly playable straight out of the box. Extremely well packed and protected all over so no transit damage. Looks the mutts nuts leant against my Marshall amps,even when it's not plugged in it looks evil ! You just want to pick it up all the time. Not everyone will like the colour,but I would think it'd mellow out a bit with use.even if it doesn't I'm not bothered,I love it. Plugged in it sounds fantastic,can't compare it with a real 59 LP but the pick ups sound really good,not at all tinny as some LP copies can be. Tuners are good and tight,although will be pulled off in favour of a set of vintage Klusons which I prefer on Gibsons,you even have the holes already drilled for you,and imprints too as if a set had been removed ! Ordered this on an impulse from Reidys Music on a Sunday morning,it was sent out on Monday afternoon,I received it on Tuesday morning first thing even without next day delivery option,so thanks are due to Reidys ! I am one very happy camper !

This guitar arrived and in ten minutes I was returning it. Hole just below the bridge and a fretboard like sandpaper. Unplayable garbage. Don’t buy it

Got this guitar at a significantly discounted price. I've been an owner of a Gibson Les Paul in the past, but this guitar is better by far! (I'm looking for a Vintage Coaster 'strat' now).

This was half price so snapped it up while I could and it does not disappoint. It plays phenomenally well considering the price, well constructed and a solid body. I will certainly be adding more Vintage guitars to my collection in future.

I paid extra to have mine properly set up by the shop before delivery. For the first day or two I was delighted - it feels good in the hand, sounded decent, and looked the part despite the relic-ing (unconvincing is the right word). It was only after moving off high gain and overdriven sounds to clean tones that I noticed the awful fret buzz affecting the bottom three strings all the way up the neck. Just to be sure I put my amp and a mic in a separate room and played a few bits from behind the door. Yep the horrible buzz was there on the recording. The shop agreed to receive it back to be looked at but when they called me a few days later it was only to report that they could find no fault and 'that's how these things are'. I just don't believe that and neither presumably would any of the other reviewers here giving it good marks. Nevertheless I decided to get a refund, with regret. So a bad experience for me. I should say though the service from the seller was very good, disappointing guitar aside.

I've had one for a couple of years now. Love the sound and playability(I prefer it to my Gibson DC Les Paul). The only drawback is the 'distressed' look. It looked more embarrassed than distressed, but I finally got round to making it look more believable, it took a day to air-brush a bit of sunburst,put on some gloss lacquer rather than the semi-gloss finish and make the scratches more realistic, and now I'm happy with it.I wouldn't normally go for a distressed guitar but now I've got one it saves me worrying if it gets accidentally knocked- it just adds to the vibe.

I am in love! Absolutely addicted to playing this through my Marshall DSL40C amp. 'Relic' has gimmick all over it, however, this plays beautifully 'straight out of the box' and definitely looks the part. Middle pick-up position kicks in to the reversed neck p u.

I've been playing guitar for 20 years and I kid you not this is one of the best made best playable and best sounding guitars I've ever played.To me the real thing is overpriced for what you get, and there's a lot of cheap rubbish about, but these are a great sounding, very playable guitar for a super price. I've got a Gordon Smith Guitar worth about £900 and I used to like it a lot, but I think, the V100 lemon drop is just more versatile and overall sounds better. In one way it's good news because I can now experiment with the pickups in my Gordon Smith which I'm in the process of doing with Wilkinson WVHZ's which are in the V100 AFD model.

I have seen reviews of the Vintage brand guitars and they have been positive. As a blues player who is more comfortable with Les Paul style guitars I was curious about one that has an out of phase middle position. When the guitar arrived I instantly knew from holding it these guitars are a well kept secret people need to know about. When it arrived I expected high action and strings fretting out. But the opposite was true. It arrived set up almost as well as my $3,400 Gibson Les Paul. I was shocked. The neck profile is different. And the relicing of the guitar makes it feel a lot different than my Les Paul. Not in a bad way and not in a way that is better it is just different and I see why people like aged guitars and reliced guitars. The attention to detail with this guitar and the quality of its components and construction are really a marvel that punch above the Epiphone counterparts of the same guitar. The only thing that is slightly lacking are the dime sized pots and thin wiring. But hey, for about $100 invested more into it. I would say it could possibly rival Gibson’s Murphy Lab Greenie. I may have to stop buying Harley Benton budget guitars and maybe no more of the big names. I think the brand Vintage really has something special and I plan to do a glowing YouTube review of this guitar and get the name of Vintage out there. Because people need to be looking at these, they really do.

J ai dû poncer les frettes qui étaient saillantes sur les côtés et j "ai dû redresser le manche car corde frisait au milieu du manche. A part ça guitare correcte pour le prix.

Been playing over 20 years. I own 10 electric guitars. This one is my favorite. Very unique look and tone. Feels very well built and feels quality made. It came ready to play straight out the box. I don't do reviews unless it's above and beyond. This guitar is way above average. A steal at this price. I love this guitar. I did my research before purchasing. Beyond what I expected to get. The out of phase tone is unique a nd where my pick up selector stays. So many times options. As close as I will ever get to owning a 59 Les Paul for sure 😃😊. I play in a band with multiple guitarist and my tone is way different in a good way to the other players.

Well made, plays nice and you get that Peter Green tone!!!!!!! Ships fedex without a case.
