Echoing
one of the most collectible and rare '60s guitars, but with sound and playability demanded by today's musician. If you dare
to be different, this is the guitar for you.
Trev Wilkinson, Italia's famed guitar designer talks about his pickups
for Italia guitars:
"Wilkinson pickups" were first designed for my "Fret-King" range of guitars. Not all of the pickups in the ranges are exact
vintage replicas. I have taken the liberty of making some subtle changes to make them more appropriate for todays' playing
styles. All Wilkinson pickups are wound for "Tone" - balance is important to me - high frequencies should sparkle but not
be thin - mids, warm and defined, and lower frequencies tight and articulate".
