The body of the 12-string VSA500SB-12 is made of laminated maple. The mahogany neck is glued to a fingerboard made of Lignum Rosa (laminated wood), a composite material similar in properties and appearance to rosewood, fitted with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets. Positioning dots make it easy to navigate its surface, while a deeper lower body cutout provides good tracking even at higher fretboard positions.
Two Wilkinson humbuckers with chrome caps give the guitar a sound suitable for jazz and rock. Its character can be adjusted with two volume potentiometers, tone controls and a three-position pickup switch. The strings are housed in Wilkinson Deluxe tuning machines with imitation ivory pegs, a solid Tune-O-Matic headstock and a stopbar. The stylish look of the instrument is accentuated by a practical black pickguard.
