“New Gibson Faded Flying V with Gigbag, $630 delivered...”
★★★★★
written by curtisrocks on 03/09/2004
Good Points
Sweet Guitar. Lightweight, Excellent tone (496/500 Pickups) vintage Beatles to blues to dirty grunge. I play mostly rock/ blues. Toggle 496 (neck) on "10", 500 on "3" for driving output thru my Peavey Delta Blues 210 (set clean with mid boost). Syrupy sweet Gibson tone. I love it. Simple controls, Fair price, Coolness & completely rocks small, clean amps to maximum saturation overdrive, Superior pickguard, pretty finish (faded cherry). This is an out of the box performer.
Bad Points
Have to use with strap & straplocks I guess, not playable over thigh for practice, but I'll live with it gratefully, it's an awesome rock and blues machine. I can't wait to wail this one on stage. A+ Gibson!

Joe Autenrieth's Response to curtisrocks's Review

Like "curtisrocks" I think the pickguard of the `67 - I got it in classic white - and the triangle of the knobs look really good.
