MGR/Pleased with Harmony « Harmony Flying V »
Published on 01/11/03 at 15:00Recently I was frequenting the local pawn-shops just looking for inexpensive guitars to add to my collection. I walked in and immediatly a cream colored Flying V with all gold colored hardware caught my eye. Since I wasn't looking for anything in particular, And I didn't have a V in my collection I decided to check it out for warping or flat frets. To my surprise it was in great condition. So I decided to buy it sound un-heard for $160.00 cash.
I normally play a Fender Stratocaster, Gibson Les Paul, or my ESP Strat-Style. But when I got home and plugged this liitle Harmony Flying V in and started playing, I was suddenly immpressed by the warm tone and screaming solo's I was getting from this thing. Very quickly this guitar has become one of, if not my favorite guitar to play.
The neck is very comfortable and fast. The warmth and overall sound is pleasing while playing clean. The gain from the pick-ups is exactly what I was looking for while playing distorted. Solo's just scream.
I can't find anything I don't like about this instrument.
Model: Flying V
Color: Cream White
Hardware: Gold (maker unknown)
Body: (guessing) Alder
Fret board: Light Blonde Maple
Inlay: (immitation) Mother of Pearl
Make: Asian...Probably Korea or China
It not a Les Paul or Gibson SG. But for the price its the closest thing to the overall sound of the above, that the Harmony Flying V captures so well. I was surprised and delighted with this buy.
