    Gibson Flying V

    Pulled the trigger on a Gibson Faded Flying V. Sounds really good and looks great. I'm thinking of painting it white.....

    Nice! Congrats!

    That would kickass in White with kidney-bean or keystone Grovers. Needless to say I love the inlays. Are those Iommi pickups?

      I have a cream 2000 and it is one of my favorite guitars.

        Did that come with the Iommi pickups?!

        I bet it sounds great!

                Congrats. It would look great in white, but it doesn't look bad the way it is. Sorry I'm no help.

                    Mine had the ebony board too and i really think it is good to have the Ebony on these guitars since there is no maple cap. Defintly a nice guitar, what ball park did that thing cost?
                    I have played the newer faded ones and the neck is slightly thicker then its bigger brother (the one i have) i am wondering what the neck size is on the ones with the cresent moons.

                      Been eyeing those myself lately - especially the Crescent Moon inlaid model - I'd have it Schenkered with a Floyd and block inlays [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

                          The Schenker needs matching vintage/olympic white pg, knobs and possibly tr cover. And it'll be da bitch.
