Description

100% original & a superb player featuring a sleek, fast neck & loaded with a pair of gorgeous sounding T-Tops that deliver rich, creamy tones. Lightweight & exceptionally resonant - this Flying V is an absolute must-have for any collector or player. Professionally inspected & set up right in house by the experts here at Cream City Music.

Cosmetic Condition: Various nicks, chips, dents & dings along with scratches. There's a pretty good sized chip in the back of the headstock at the top, but no cracks, breaks or repairs. Overall the guitar has a great look to it with an authentic vintage vibe & beautiful patina.

Neck: Slender profile mahogany neck with cream side-dots. Rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays. Frets show some wear, but have plenty of life in them. Gibson-embossed nickel tuners with keystone buttons. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.

Body: Solid mahogany body in sunburst finish. Stopbar tailpiece with ABR-1 bridge & 4-ply white pickguard. Guitar weighs a delightful 6 1/2 lbs & is very resonant!

Electronics: Gibson T-Top humbuckers with exposed coils both date to 1980. Bridge - 7.56K ohms; Neck - 7.51K ohms. Dual volume & master tone controls with black "witch hat" knobs; 3-way toggle switch. Pots date to '79 & all electronics are in perfect working condition.

Case: Original hardshell case included.
