The Boss is one of the latest models in the Vintage ProShop series. Starting life as a distressed Vintage Icon V52MRBS, this guitar maintains all the essential bullet points that have made this model popular but the original distressed Butterscotch finish has been taken back following the grain to reveal areas of the ash body. Then a final amber top coat is applied. The guitar is offset with a black Bakelite pickguard and authentically aged bolt-on maple neck, fingerboard, headstock and hardware. The Boss model features a set of balanced Bare Knuckle, high output pickups in the neck and bridge positions, both with extended bass and treble response, which delivers compressed dynamics and superior sustain.
