Beerad12 Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I've been looking for a flying v for some time now and this 2000 limited edition v fit the bill. Plays amazing and looks even cooler. For a 21 year old guitar this thing is clean! Not even a smudge on the gold hardware. That is until I got it. It's been played more in the last few days than it likely did in the previous 20 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdgm Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I'm not a V guy but it does look in perfect condition - your pic makes the headstock look huge! I was wondering about the stand then realised of course you can't put it in a rack like your other ones there. Nice collection by the look of it. I think I spot a Firebird and what might be the sharp cutaway of an Explorer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I bought it I thought uh oh, this wont fit in the current stands I have and sweetwater just restocked on the gibson branded stands so I figured why not! Yep, that's a firebird and explorer over there. The explorer while much newer than the v make a nice pair. Both natural finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturn Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Very nice. Are all V headstocks that big? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I think it the photo angle. Some have the more blunt headstock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
