With an aggressive sharp angled body design, the metal themed Vintage® VW5000VMX WARP™ solid bodied electric guitar is part of the Limited Edition VMX Series, a tribute series dedicated to the highly successful Vintage Metal Axxe™ Series, which in itself, has inspired generations of metal players all over the world.
With its menacing, all-over blackest of black satin finishes, distinctive lines and designs that speak for themselves, the WARP features Vintage's renowned craftsmanship, quality tonewoods, exceptional playability and premium hardware to produce killer metal guitars, specifically designed to handle every genre of metal, from heavy to thrash, to death metal and beyond.
Hardware that includes time-tested Wilkinson® double coil pickups and machine heads, whilst a Floyd Rose® FRTS 2000 Special Double Locking Vibrato system and locking nut, adds to the already-cool, black satin finish and black hardware.
With Wilkinson double coil pickups in the bridge and neck positions delivering a full frequency response, they sparkle and chime with the volume control wound back, at full tilt they roar with a powerful meaty output that’s perfect for low-end palm-muted chugging and monster soaring lead lines with endless sustain, looking stunning, finished in black with black surrounds.
Metal players also love the WARP’s super fast set neck and generous lower cutaway offering all-access to the 24fret double octave, rosewood fingerboard with XX motif spanning the 12th fret, and the same pointy headstock featured in the original Vintage Metal Axxe Series.
Visually, the WARP is metal every inch of the way, with the ability to effortlessly produce heavy grooves and seriously saturated metal tones, while the Floyd Rose Vibrato offers precision return to pitch and a solid platform for hard-hitting right-hand attack.
Whether you are a serious metal player or in a musical transition, you’ll want to be armed with one of the best metal guitars available...that’ll be the incredible Vintage WARP.
