The Vintage V4MTB 'Tony Butler Signature' ICON bass replicates the beautiful, worn-in look and feel of an instrument that exhibits a lifetime's worth of woodshedding, rehearsing and performing, straight out of the box. Good things come to those who wait but who has the time for that?
Designed in conjunction with former Big Country bassist Tony Butler, the Vintage V4MTB features a single Wilkinson WBBCCR pickup, compensated brass saddle bridge and improved upper fret access, bringing together the best of modern and traditional aesthetics and features.
"For any bass player to own a quality instrument from the word go is inspiring," says Tony. "After trying it out during a Big Country rehearsal I quickly decided that the V4MTB would tour with me. To have a signature model made to my live bass spec is an honour!"
A Vintage ICON Series Bass already looks like your lifetime companion; the best part is your journey is just beginning. Play on.
