The V3 New Gen now features a new simplified 2-band preamp for easier tone shaping, upgraded Alnico-magnet pickups for a warmer and more expressive sound, and slightly refined neck and body profiles that enhance overall playing comfort. A tinted neck finish has also been added to give the instrument a more premium and classic look.
