The VS6MRCR may wear the appearance of a seasoned stage veteran, but, as with all Vintage ICON electric guitars, it also boasts a little contemporary innovation too. Featuring an ingeniously designed drop shoulder and offset heel to provide improved access to the upper frets, the VS6MRCR exhibits an edgy, streamlined appearance and enhanced playability.
Good things come to those who wait – but who has the time for that? The Vintage ICON Series replicates the beautiful, worn-in look and feel of an instrument that has paid its dues, without investing the lifetime's worth of woodshedding, rehearsing, performing and travel. This is a guitar that already looks like your lifetime companion; the best part is your journey is just beginning. Play on.
