  I've stated time and again that I don't like the odd, angular shaped guitars. But I've always been intrigued by the Flying V guitars. Maybe it was seeing Hendrix, Albert King, or Billy Gibbons playing one that really piqued my curiosity, but I've always thought they looked rather special. So I finally decided to try one out. The Faded Flying V was the only V my local store had in stock, so I put it to the test. Firstly, and most obviously, the guitar is somewhat cumbersome to hold while in a seated position. The guitar must be held with the "arms" of the V shape astride one leg, and this results in a higher playing angle than most people are used to. As odd as that is, it actually makes the fretting arm more comfortable. The setup was great right out of the box, and I could get great tones right away.

  Sounds

  Again, another homerun from Gibson in the tonal department. This guitar has a thick, singing sustain from the neck position, and a nice, powerful cut out of the bridge. The guitar probably isn't terribly appropriate for all styles, but I could see someone using it in anything except country and jazz and pulling it off.

  Gesamteindruck

  Overall, another great product from Gibson. The looks are classic, yet simple, and the tonal picture is nice. Playability is like that of any good Gibson, and your wallet won't suffer!

  The Gibson flying V guitar is a great rock 'n roll and a great looking guitar and sounding guitar. Whenever someone sees this guitar on stage are in an even in the guitar shop you just think hard rock or metal. Whether it be country or pop music with this guitar you're just think about heavy distortion and long hair. It's a great looking guitar and one of the most iconic looking guitars that is ever been built. It has a great tone is very Gibson sounding in nature but does have its own thing going on compared to a Gibson SG or get some Les Paul guitar.

  Sounds

  The guitars pretty easy to play but I suggest using it with the guitar strap. If you've ever played a Gibson SG or Gibson Les Paul guitar and then you know that you can set them in your lap and play them sitting on a chair or stool. This is not to be a guitar that you're going to be able to do that with. If you play to Gibson Firebird and you know exactly what I'm talking about because the weird body shape doesn't allow this guitar to sit on your knee. So you always have to use this with a guitar strap and probably standing up. So with that in mind which is not a big deal but it's just something that needs to be said about this guitar. It has a ye large body in the shape of a fee with the usual volume and tone control knobs. Much like the Gibson SG guitar where you can reach the high register frets this guitar allows you to do the same thing. So you're good. Have a lot more versatility in the upper frets than you would be Gibson Les Paul guitarists because those have the back of the body more closer towards the frets which allows it more difficult to reach those higher frets. To this when you're able to play up in the higher frets with much more ease.
  
  
  
  The tone is guitar is fantastic with its mahogany wood would a body and neck. You have a rosewood fretboard and the overall tone is guitar is very rock 'n roll. It sounds absolutely fantastic couple with a Marshall amplifier or Mesa boogie amplifier. Pretty much any high gain amplifier will work well with this guitar. My personal favor probably has to be either a Marshall amplifier that's modified or a Bogner amplifier. Something was a good chewy distortion tone works well with this guitar. Simply because it allows for that good chunky rhythmic tone so a good steak distortion sounds exceptional with this guitar.

  Gesamteindruck

  Add new you can find these guitars for right around $900 which is a steal of a price. This is a great price for good rock 'n roll guitar and a great digging guitar. This is the players guitar for sure and not a boutique or showroom guitar. The look of it just stands out very well so you better be ready to rock it hard if you're going to bring this guitar on stage with you. It's a great price guitar for someone he's looking to get into something better than a Ibanez guitar and wants a fantastic recording and gigging guitar.

  Eigenschaften

  The Gibson Flying V Faded is a guitar that is essentially a Gibson Flying V '67 reissue, but instead of being painted in a solid colour finish like black, white or cherry it is painted in one of Gibson's "faded" finishes. I personally am a fan of these finishes as they are much thinner than a typical paint job (helping the tone) plus they are generally cheaper than the regular '67 V. Bonus!
  
  
  
  It's got all mahogany construction with a rosewood fretboard, 22 frets, dot inlays, Kluson tuners, tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece, and a pair of high output Gibson 496R and 500T humbuckers. There's a fairly simple control layout of two volumes (one per pickup) a master tone control for both pickups as well as a 3 way toggle switch for the dual humbuckers.

  Anwendung

  The Flying V is a fairly ergonomic guitar that sits extremely well on the body and is light in weight. The faded construction makes the guitar feel purer and more air-y, almost as if it has a layer removed when compared to the regular '67 V. It's light and very resonant. Even when being played unplugged it sounds clear and defined - always a good sign. The upper fret access is quite good on this guitar too.
  
  
  
  Getting a good sound of this guitar is fairly simple. Most classic Gibsons are basically plug and play guitars that are meant for a specific player who knows how to channel what he or she wants from their instrument, and this guitar is no exception. It sounds excellent for hard rock and classic metal, and the thinner faded finish helps to give the guitar a sound is brighter and not quite as compressed as the regular Flying V.

  Sounds

  The Faded Flying V is equipped with fairly high output pickups that work well for rock and metal styles. It's not a guitar that sounds stellar to me for cleaner work, because Gibson's higher output pickups tend to compress easily and not allow for the dynamic level that contributes to a great sounding clean tone. However, for overdrive tones it sounds great. The neck pickup has a wonderful fluid tone for lead work from rock to metal/shred, and the bridge pickup has a nice raunchy bite that really cuts through in a mix, even at higher gain settings. It's definitely well suited to players looking for a guitar that sounds great for heavier sounds but still with a nice air-y quality that is due to the thinner finish.

  Gesamteindruck

  The Gibson Faded Flying V is a great sounding and great playing guitar for anyone looking for a flashy yet great sounding guitar at a good price. For $1,000 new, this guitar is an excellent value for money, and I really like it overall. I personally prefer this model to the more expensive '67 RI V because it sounds more vintage and less compressed, especially on higher gain settings. Definitely give one a whirl if you get the chance.

  Eigenschaften

  The Flying V is a classic design by Gibson. It was introduced in the late 50s and was way too radical and ahead of its time. It was re-introduced in the mid 60s and people loved it. Gibson has been making them ever since. This Faded version is currently the most popular Flying V model right now. Gibson noticed that people were starting to like worn in looking guitars. They decided to start a line of Faded guitars that do not have the final clear coat on them to give guitar players a line of new guitars that look old. The guitar is made from solid mahogany with a mahogany set neck. The neck is 22 frets with a rosewood fretboard. The neck is not bound. It has two volume knobs and one tone knob and a 3 way pickup selector. It has 496R and 500T ceramic magnet pickups in the neck and bridge respectively. These pickups are Gibsons own design. It has a traditional Les Paul style tune-o-matic bridge and stop tailpiece.

  Anwendung

  Because of the V design the upper frets are easier to reach than on a Les Paul. The set neck design means there is a bit of a heel at the neck joint but on this model it is not bad. Because there is no clear coat on the final the guitar feels very smooth and it does not ever get sticky. Because of the shape you may have to play in a classical position when you play sitting down but this is not a problem for me because I always play in a classical position.

  Sounds

  The pickups the V comes with are generic Gibson pickups. They are good at everything but not great at anything. The mahogany wood give the guitar a really deep sound even though the body is not that big. If you want to play heavier music you may want to change out the pickups. The Gibson pickups are medium output and are voiced more for classic rock.

  Gesamteindruck

  Its great for Gibson to put out cheaper models of their guitars that have practically the same features. The flying V is a very popular guitar. The Flying V has been around for over 50 years and will be around for a many more years. So if you are looking for a classic design that will always be cool and popular the Faded flying V might be right for you.

  Eigenschaften

  The Flying V Faded is based on the late-sixties V design in which the three control knobs form a triangle, not the fifties design in which they form a straight line. It's got the usual V features: two humbuckers, mahogany body, ebony fingerboard, and penis-shaped silhouette.
  
  
  
  The following things distinguish the Faded version of the V from the non-faded version: It has one coat lacquer as opposed to several, it comes with a gigbag rather than a hard case, it costs significantly less money. You could actually buy this guitar and then buy a hardcase from Gibson and you'd still be paying less money than for the non-faded V. The missing coats of lacquer do not make a difference to the sound (unless, I suppose, you're playing it under water).

  Anwendung

  Many people who have never actually played a Flying V mistakenly think it will be a) heavy, and b) awkward feeling. The guitar is way lighter and easier to play than a Les Paul, and far more well balanced than an SG (which, to me, always feels like it's going to fall if you don't hold the neck up). Very easy to play and very comfortable to wear.
  
  
  
  I guess if you like playing sitting down you wouldn't want one, because it can't be done very well. Standing up, though, it's very nice. In keeping with its comically-phallic aesthetic, it fits snuggly into the crotch. Oh la la!

  Sounds

  The ceramic magnet pickups that come with this guitar (and all Flying Vs) are good for metal. By "good for metal" I mean that they are extremely high-output and make even the warmest-sounding tube amp sound like you've plugged the guitar directly into a cheap solid-state PA system. If you do not play metal I highly recommend that you replace the stock pickups. I swapped mine out for for Gibson '57 Classics and, along with the hardcase upgrade I mentioned earlier, this is now my main gigging guitar. Furthermore, I made back much of the money I spent by selling the old pickups and the gigbag, but even had I not sold them I still would have spent less on this guitar than I would have on the non-faded V. And the new pickups make this one sound so much better!

  Gesamteindruck

  I've had this guitar for about two years. I'm not into metal, and neither are my friends or bandmates (we're all into pretentious hipster music), so whenever I play the V they're always skeptical, until they try it out. Once they try it out, they all say they want one. I kind of bought this guitar as a joke; I was planning on starting a joke metal band and then reselling it, but I'm totally serious about it now. After switching the pickups the guitar just sounds great, and it played great from day one. And, of course, it looks, well, hilarious.
