It’s back to the V-Factor future with the new Worn Cherry finish. It gives this classic but futuristic model the look of a well-worn, well-loved vintage instrument.
New faded finish gives it the look of a seasoned performer. The Gibson Faded Flying V was born to rock. When the original V came out in ’58, it was ahead of its time. When it was reissued 9 years later, it became a favorite of progressive rockers and still is to this day. This Faded Flying V has all the features and specs of the ’67 model and the look of a guitar that has been loved and cared for since those early days.
