2017 Gibson Custom Shop Flying V Custom
Description
Summary: As part of a very limited run of only 200 instruments for 2017, the Gibson Custom Shop Flying V Custom electric guitar won't be available for long. Gibson has taken the iconic Flying V platform and given it a distinctive look, Custom Shop appointments, and 490R/498T humbucking pickups for exceptional tone. The combination of ebony finish, rolled fretboard binding, and gold hardware sets this Flying V apart from the rest. CTS control pots, a Switchcraft toggle switch, and a hand-wired harness are ready for a lifetime of reliable performance.
Body: Mahogany with an Ebony finish, bound top.
Neck: Mahogany with a bound Ebony fingerboard, 24.75” scale length, 1 11/16” nut width, 22 frets, pearl block inlays.
Pickups/Hardware: 490R/498T humbucking pickups, Grover tuning key, gold hardware, tunomatic bridge, string through the body, diamond jack plate, black pickguard, gold arrow tailpiece.
Cosmetics: This guitar is in excellent condition and shows very little signs of use. It has light surface scratches and some light pick wear on the pickguard.
