Vintage VS63 SG style guitar

Chris (MD at Guitar Mania) says: “Vintage have been around a while. They have enjoyed some success despite being obviously overshadowed by Epiphone, which is a shame, because these guitars deserve a look. Consider them a thinking mans Epiphone. As you go through each facet of the guitar you start to realise these guitars are much better value than ‘the others’. Pickups, bridge, tuners and just the general attention to detail make them techically a better. However, us guitarists don’t necessarily buy guitars on the spech alone (otherwise I think these guitars would be way more popular) so it’s all about the looks, feel and tone. In my opinion the Vintage range, in general, is very worthy of your attention. You’ll definitely be impressed with the looks, playability and tone compared to the big brands.”
