[SN 73468122] USED GIBSON / 1978 Flying V Natural [06]
A 1978 Gibson "Flying V" in a natural finish has arrived!
This model features stamped numbered pickups and a 3-piece mahogany neck with a volute.
In terms of sound, it delivers the classic, rich tone characteristic of a mahogany Flying V from the 1970s.
With a cool, woody sound that really lets the mid-to-high frequencies shine through, this is a vintage Flying V that you’ll want to play to your heart’s content on stage!
There are signs that the tuners were likely replaced with Schaller-type tuners at some point, but the replacement holes have been filled, and the original Gibson tuners have been reinstalled. The 3rd string tuner is bent.
The bushings have also been replaced, and there is a mix of different types.
Regarding the pot date, it reads 13775**, and the pickguard has been replaced with a 3-ply version.
There is a crack in the truss rod cover, and the top of one of the control knobs is peeling.
The bridge has been replaced with an ABR-type bridge, and there are signs that the bridge anchor holes have been modified.
There are holes where the strap pins were relocated; some have been filled, while others remain open.
The nut and frets have been replaced.
While there are many modifications, the guitar has developed weather checking, giving it a truly exceptional character.
The included hard case shows some wear and dirt, but considering its age, it is in relatively good condition.
One of the latches is a bit loose, but the case is still perfectly usable for storing the instrument.
This is a 1970s Gibson, a model whose value has been steadily rising in recent years.
While it shows signs of age, wear, and modifications, and is not entirely original, this vintage Flying V offers a powerful vintage sound that is truly captivating.
