Ready to unleash some serious rock attitude? The Gibson ’70s Flying V is a faithful recreation of the radical axe that inspired a generation of hard rockers and metalheads. This guitar isn’t just about its iconic, aggressive shape; it’s a high-performance machine built for scorching tones, endless sustain, and edgy stage presence. From its resonant mahogany body to its hand-wired pickups, every detail is engineered to deliver a classic sound with modern precision.
Relive the Glory of ’70s Rock
The moment you strap on this Flying V, you'll understand why it became a legend. It’s surprisingly lightweight and comfortable, encouraging you to play for hours without needing a post-gig chiropractor.
Timeless PAF Tone: The '70s Tribute Burstbucker pickups are the heart of this guitar's sound. They deliver that coveted classic humbucker voice — tight lows, a rich and complex midrange, and sweet, singing highs.
Hand-wired for Purity: To ensure every nuance of your playing comes through, the electronics are hand-wired with Orange Drop capacitors. This premium touch guarantees a pure, vintage-correct signal path for spot-on classic tone.
Plek’d for Perfection: Gibson's high-tech Plek Pro machine levels each fret with surgical precision.
Built for Speed and Comfort
This Flying V is designed to feel as fast as it looks, with features that prioritize playability for even the most demanding performances.
SlimTaper Neck Profile: Forget chunky, cumbersome necks. The SlimTaper mahogany neck offers a modern, comfortable feel that’s perfect for both lightning-fast solos and chunky rhythm playing. It’s a profile that invites speed without sacrificing comfort.
Smooth Rosewood Fingerboard: The rosewood fingerboard isn't just for looks; its smooth feel is easy on your fingers, making long jam sessions and intense gigs a breeze. The classic dot inlays provide a clean, understated look.
Lightweight Mahogany Body: The resonant mahogany body is contoured for comfort, whether you're playing standing up or sitting down. It’s light enough to rock all night without weighing you down, letting you focus on your performance.
The Ultimate Hard Rock Machine
The Gibson '70s Flying V is more than just a throwback; it’s a meticulously crafted instrument that delivers the tone, feel, and look that defined an era of rock music. Whether you're a die-hard fan of '70s hard rock or a modern player looking for a guitar with attitude and killer tone, this Flying V is ready to rock.
