The Gibson Flying V was way ahead of its time when it was introduced in 1958. So much so that while it may seem hard to believe today, only 81 were shipped that year. However, the Flying V’s popularity has grown exponentially in the years since then, due in no small part to the many guitar heroes who have embraced the model, including Albert King, Keith Richards, Slash, Joe Bonamassa, Lonnie Mack, Dave Davies of The Kinks, and Billy Gibbons, just to name a few.
Gibson Custom 1958 Mahogany Flying V Reissue Guitar with Case Features:
This version of the 1958 Flying V uses mahogany instead of the original Korina wood for the neck and body, but otherwise, all of the classic vintage Flying V features have been carefully recreated in this Historic Reissue model. Mahogany delivers a somewhat warmer sound than the slightly brighter Korina, making it a great choice for players who love the 1950s Flying V aesthetic but who are looking for a denser, all-mahogany tone for rock and metal. And since mahogany is more readily available than the scarcer Korina, this also makes the 1958 Mahogany Flying V Reissue the most accessible way to get Historic Flying V looks, features, and performance.
Featuring an ABR-1 bridge with a lacquered brass chevron and a string-through mahogany body, unpotted Custombucker pickups with Alnico 3 magnets, a hide glue-fitted mahogany neck with a 50s Rounded Medium C profile, and an Indian rosewood fretboard equipped with 22 reissue frets and adorned with pearloid dot inlays, this guitar delivers both style and authenticity. Additional details include two volume and one tone control with CTS potentiometers and a phone book capacitor, VOS nitrocellulose lacquer finish and aged gold hardware, Kluson single ring tuners, and a 4-ply white pickguard.
A historically accurate case is also included, with a classic brown exterior and plush pink interior to keep this beautiful guitar safe when you’re traveling to your next gig.
