The V6MRTBG is a unique instrument, built to the exacting specifications of German guitar giant Thomas Blug.
Blug is renowned throughout the music industry as a Tonemeister, a player who appreciates and understands sound on a profound level. As such, any Thomas Blug signature guitar had to be capable of producing a wealth of tones and timbres. As well as his finely-tuned auditory abilities, Thomas is famed for his innate sense of expression, his touch on the instrument, and the varied influences which inform his world-class playing style. The task was set to produce a guitar that provided both an expansive tonal palette and the high level of playability and versatility required in a professional electric guitar.
The V6MRTBG is the result of a collaborative project between Herr Blug and the Vintage design team; a signature guitar, tweaked and refined by a finite degree to satisfy the most discriminating ear. The V6MRTBG combines the looks and feel of Thomas's long-favoured '61 guitar, with a series of contemporary design tweaks and modern technological advancements. Authentic 60s style aluminium shielding under scratchplate reduces hum and static noise, while Thomas' 'Bukka' switch provides access to extra tones via a push-push tone control.
œOutstanding, says Thomas. œDesigning and tweaking every part of this guitar has been labour of love. To achieve all this, in an instrument which literally anyone can afford, even a first time buyer, it's unbelievable.
