Description
Gibson's Victory models were made for only a brief moment in the early '80s & this super cool MV X is from the first year of production. The Victory was a departure from Gibson's image as an old-fashioned guitar maker. MV stands for Multi-Voice, and X stands for ten. They were created by the Gibson research and development team in Kalamazoo, MI, with the sturdy body and neck work by Chuck Burge, and the "multi-voice" pickups and electronics by Tim Shaw. Loaded with Magna Plus humbuckers in the neck & bridge & a Super Stack in the middle for mind bending, muscular tones that just won't quit! Professionally set up by the experts here at Cream City Music, so it's ready for action upon arrival.
