Catch It Before It Flies Away – 2006 Gibson Flying V in Faded Cherry 290

Catch It Before It Flies Away – 2006 Gibson Flying V in Faded Cherry

The Gibson Flying V is undoubtedly original icon of heavy metal. Familiar classic features hide upgraded performance under the hood. This classic metal monster needs no bells and whistles, relying solely on a Gibson 495T for hot shredding solos in the bridge position and the mellower Gibson 490R in the neck position for that smooth throaty blues tone of the late ’50s and early ’60s. We don’t have to wax poetic about the legendary Tune-O-Matic bridge and Gibson Deluxe tuners for perfect tuning stability. This guitar has everything you need, and nothing you don’t (unless you’re trying to sit down with it, but you can’t win them all).
