Great price on a great little amp:

Even the extra $200 for the cabinet is a pretty good deal.

I did not realize until looking that those heads are now $1000 new. That is a nice deal.

I have a VP that I would like to hadd a Hipshot Xtender to. While I'm at it I may swap out the other three machine heads as well. The Wilkinson machine aren't bad but they aren't great either but I do likebthe tapered posts. Has anyone here done this swap and if so which Hipshots would be the closest fit? I'm not looking to go light weight as I'm not really experiencing any neck dive as is and I hate looking at empty holes in the headstock. Thanks!

Those are nice amps. Pairs well with a fridge...
I have those on my Embassy. No complaints.
I skipped and skimmed but yer right. Kinda "bassless". Sound man or his choice?
I put Hipshot’s on my 2017 VP, 3 plus the extender. The ones I got were not a direct fit, I recall 2 of the 4 holes did not line up exactly. I drilled and filled the two holes with glue/dowels and they are covered by the new tuners plates. Pretty sure they were the HB1 tuners and BT1 extender.
I know there are many fans of them from our youth. We’ll see how it goes. Could be fun. At least I hope so.

Internal mic of his camcorder. I've been emailing him about a better external mic for it. I found a $40 one that is well-liked and offered to buy it for him to support the effort.
Hopefully you can get him out for the upcoming big show!

This is an original "Vintage Pro" with the large Wilkinson Tuners, I did add a Hipshot D tuner to it. Glenn @Instagator has done this to several of his Birds as well, yours' appears to have the newer smaller tuners.

My first concert was Alice Cooper in 1973 for Billion Dollar Babies - Yeah, it didn't affect me at all
Nice day in the Bako burbs. Mom taking kids out for a stroll.
I’d guess this is a great deal if I was into NR’s. I’m not.
