  • An instrument that was designed in the late 50s and released to... controversial reception, that has since become vastly more popular as time went on - we present an original first-year 1958 Gibson Flying V! This one is original down to the nut, frets, and even an untouched set of PAF pickups. We'll go ahead and let Jay fill you in on the history and details of this holy grail instrument, before handing it off to Aaron Hiebert for a killer demo through a great modern AC-30 hand-wired head and matching cab in the excellent 'Faun' tolex finish.

      Gretev1 you’re saying a cracked neck diminishes the value of a vintage guitar? Shocking.
      Sarcasm aside, my comment had absolutely nothing to do with value. The word I used was “cooler.” Meaning I think it’s a great story.
      Either way the price tag on the guitar is over $400K, so I won’t be buying it!

      jamesha175 Ok I am just surprised anyone would find a broken neck a cool feature. I was also suspicious because this very channel uploaded this guitar approx. a month ago with the presenter commenting on the broken neck and selling it as a feature. The comment section was littered with people making fun of this sly marketing tactic of an essentially „broken“ item. The video was promptly taken down. I did not mean to come off as condescending.

      But they have the most beautiful warm silky bluesy sound on the upper frets, especially through a Marshall type amp on the verge of breakup. I've often wondered if the higher frets being in the middle of the guitar more or less and those long "fins" are beneficial to resonance, kinda like a wooden tuning fork shaped guitar. You gotta try one sometime, play 14th fret and up through a hot amp with the volume rolled back. Best blues sound ever.

      Epiphone made a wonderful reissue, bought mine new for about 300 bucks discounted. Stock pickups are underwhelming but slap on some goldcover PAF's and it's almost indistinguishable in sound from the original. I see them for about 600-700 bucks from time to time, because I'm thinking about getting a spare. I feel the value may increase at some point, beyond what it already has. Korean made ones are the best from the 2000-2007 or so.
