Another killer sounding and ultimate mojo infused Flying V brought to you by The Guitar Dude. Nothing seems to stir up nostalgia like the sight of a Gibson Flying V... When you see one, you just have to pick it up and ROCK! Well, here is your chance to grab a really good one. Hailing from the "Good Wood Years", up for grabs is a '67 reissue, Wine Red, Gibson Flying V with a rosewood fretboard. This guitar has the looks, sound and feel of everything you would hope to find in the perfect player. It was made at Gibson’s Nashville plant and is in overall Excellent condition, only showing minor play-wear. It has some polished marks and a few dings but nothing nasty and it just adds to the mojo with a nice broken in feel. While this mostly closet queen wasn't played much, it was played. It also has an area with minor cloudiness or finish reaction on the back. (see pics) The Gibson Flying V '67 Reissue is made to recreate the famous Flying V that was used by guitar legends like Jimi Hendrix, Albert King and Michael Schenker (among many others).

This guitar has that vintage vibe that just radiates cool... all it's missing is the perfect player to let her rock!

Body: Solid V shaped mahogany body in Wine Red finish with 3-ply white pick-guard, Tune-O-Matic bridge, and chrome stop-bar tailpiece.

Neck: Slim ‘60s profile mahogany neck with pearl side dots and pearl dot inlays. 1 11/16” nut width, 24 3/4" scale length. Black headstock overlay with white truss rod cover and gold Gibson logo. The neck is straight and truss rod works perfectly.

Electronics:
Gibson 496R & 500T Humbucking Pickups 

A Little History About the Flying V:

The Gibson Flying V was introduced in 1958 as part of an effort by Ted McCarty to modernize Gibson’s reputation with futuristic designs, along with the Explorer and the only-prototyped Moderne. While a few prominent players immediately picked up the Flying V, it was not popular and production ceased by 1959. During 1963, a few were built from leftover parts, but the two initial 1958 production batches totaled around 80 instruments. While the design of the Gibson Flying V is radical, its construction is simple and straightforward. A two-piece Korina body (each side of the V is one piece) is paired with a Korina neck with a Rosewood fingerboard. On the original models, the standard tune-o-matic bridge was not accompanied by a stop tailpiece – the strings fed through the body from the back, like many Fender guitars, and a metal V shaped plate was mounted on the top. Initial models also had the individual volume and master tone controls mounted in a straight line, and the output jack was held on a round plate, separate from the pickguard.

When Gibson reissued the Flying V in 1966, the woods used were Gibson’s standard Mahogany, a stop tailpiece was added in place of the string-through design, the pickguard was enlarged to include the output jack, and the controls were grouped in a parallelogram rather than a straight line. It wasn’t until the rise of more aggressive styles of Rock, especially Metal genres, that the Flying V really took off.



This guitar is professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability. It has low action with no buzzing or dead spots and is an absolute joy to play. It has been deep cleaned and detailed. All guitars will arrive looking and playing great. The frets have been leveled / dressed / polished and the fingerboard was cleaned. (Unfinished Rosewood and Ebony boards get treated with Fret Doctor - a proprietary all natural oil that is the best on the market) It has brand new strings, the action was adjusted, the intonation is spot on and it plays excellent. All the electronics work flawlessly.

Simply put “good enough” is not good enough for The Guitar Dude’s standards. We try and make every guitar be at its absolute BEST to deliver on our promise.

Terms For Returns & Re-Stocking Fee’s

We recognize and accept a 7 day return policy as per Reverb guidelines, BUT intentions of the return must be communicated in writing within 3 day of receiving the guitar as indicated by the tracking. Unless the guitar is not as described, ORIGINAL & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. There is a 10% Re-stocking fee for ALL guitars that are returned for ANY reason outside of damage from shipping or it arrives significantly not as described. Please note that we record demo videos to make sure our guitars go out exactly as we describe them with zero issues. We understand that feeling comfortable is vital to the purchase of a guitar/bass so in any case, additional measurements or in hand descriptions are available prior to purchase/shipping. Thats said, guitars travel a great distance some times and in transit things can happen. Also guitars acclimate to new environments and this can cause a need for a new set up or minor adjustment. It is acceptable and normal if there is for instance a tiny bit of buzzing or the need to adjust a truss rod. We are in south Florida and if you are in a colder or less humid environment it is almost to be expected. Please read our feedback and see what our customers say. The guitar MUST BE RETURNED IN THE EXACT CONDITION it was advertised/received or it is subject to additional costs & or repair fees. We are not a big chain shop, I hope you understand. If you are uncomfortable with these terms please do not purchase. There are plenty big chain shops that can absorb free trials and shipping.
