Gibson Flying V Electric Guitar, Ebony Gibson’s original Flying V of 1958 was so far ahead of its time that even the first reissues, almost 10 years later, were only moderately successful. Finally, in the late ’60s and early ’70s, progressive rockers embraced the V, and the 1967 version lives on today. Includes free Gibson hardshell case - a 218 value.
Customer Review: Gibsonius Maximus
The legendary Flying V by Gibson is one of the top guitars of choice for all music afficionados. I bought my first “V” when I toured with the second re-grouping of Screaming Lord Sutch. I have always loved the remarkeable sustain the V can produces even while being beaten with a bratwurst. I now own three V’s and would not part with any of them. There durable construction is a bonus as well. I once clubbed an irrate sound technician in the face with one while doing studio work for “The Filth” back in 93. Once while performing with The Defecators I actually used my 2nd V to bat in incoming beer bottle back into the crowd during a show in Hamburg. The action is very light and perfect for doing solo’s with your tongue. My 3rd V can be heard on tracks 2, 4 and 5 on Meat Sticks 3rd album…”Whats for lunch”.
