All user reviews for the Gibson Flying V Faded

Purchased in the USA in the famous House of Guitars in Rochester, NY (ROLLING Stone magazine classépar the second best guitar dealer from world to world, eeeeh yeah!), At a ridiculous price (like $ 399).
Exact replica of a real one, with the approximate finishing characteristics of gibbons, little or no jacks, cheap wood, but but but, it sounds like a direct Tyson!
Channel hum stakes, 4 settings, nothing but classic Gibson.
For the price, this is a war beast to carry around.

SOUNDS

It goes very well for the nice big metal or shredding. Personally, for jazz, blues rock, I was not convinced. So I sold to a friend of mine Head banger who takes delight every Friday and Saturday evening.

OVERALL OPINION

She has flaws and qualities of its big sister: impossible to play sitting down!

The Gibson Faded Flying V is an affordable, no-nonsense guitar with enough class to stay ahead of other gibson USA models in the looks department. The Faded V features a solid Mahogany body and set neck, coupled with a rosewood fingerboard. The 496R and 500T pickups pair perfectly with this guitar, lending it a powerful feel when gain is applied. The controls are made up of two separate volumes and a shared tone pot, which leads to less output resistance and more power. The looks of the guitar are surprisingly fair, unlike other guitars in the faded series.

UTILIZATION

The tuning stability of the V is average. I found that the B-string on the particular guitar I tested had issues with keeping in check. The neck profile is flaunted by gibson of being a cross between the 60's slim taper neck and the thicker 50's style. I couldn't discern any great benefit to it, but the neck did feel wonderful in the palm. The pickup selection for this guitar is perfect, they give the V a very "hot" sound that allowed for enhanced playing feel with aggressive styles.

SOUNDS

I played the Gibson Faded flying V through a JVM210h. Mesa 4x12 cab. No pedals.

If my previous review was any indication, I am not a fan of the JVM series amps at all. This guitar, however, managed to make it pretty enjoyable to listen through. The clean sounds aren't exactly crystal, but they are useable. The focus of this guitar was gain sounds, and this is what I spent most of my time using the guitar for. The guitar allowed for fluid lead runs with oodles of sustain. I could have easily spent a day playing the same riffs on this guitar and not realized the time past. One of the best guitars I've played for aggressive styles of music.



OVERALL OPINION

The Gibson Faded Flaying V is a rock/metal guitarist's dream. The guitar is inexpensive, fetching as low as $500 on the used market, while not being stripped of features to the point of damaging desirability. The V retains the gibson aesthetic cues that fans of the brand crave, without set fire to their wallets.

Well first of all, I wanted to say I am one of those who are not convinced that their purchase is the best choice they could do to feel good, and everything as we meet a lot on these forums . This sets the tone of the opinion that will ensue.

Brief characteristics were repeated several times, see the previous notices.

Now I wanted to push a big rant to Gibson, who through advertising campaigns and often well-conducted buyers who buy on the internet and therefore do not try their guitar store (I designed myself by saying this), manage to sell guitars poorly finished, with a violin that can not be regarded as exceptional for a price well above its qualities. A Gibson is a dream for every guitarist, but that dream is soon broken when comparing a Gibson to another lesser known brand made in Asia for the same price, a guitarist reasoned choose the sound and quality and this is not more at Gibson ...

Else for that Flying V, the factory settings are disturbing, we must immediately go to a luthier to adjust the action is too high, the neck is a little mouth, not even the screws into the wood, and the wiring ... brief is blah.

In other mics it's known, 500t and 496R, while mahogany ... (Poor quality on mine is not sapele and African mahogany unfortunately ...), three body parts and handle one piece (good for once)

UTILIZATION

Side of ergonomics, you must love the shape, almost unplayable sitting very sure, or else develop in a special position, but hey it's the Flying V, it is preferred to play it safe standing.

The neck is quite thin, pleasant, it is not as fine as highways or other ibanez guitars shred but it's not bad, again this is obviously personal opinions.

Access to acute, you can not do better so it can only be perfect.

SOUNDS

Ahh the sound, that's what any guitarist looking for, and it is also one of the main outcome of a guitar.

First vacuum, big surprise, it sounds, for the quality of the violin, I'm pleasantly surprised, so good!

Now, clean sound, plugged into a Vox AC30 1975 and a Mesa Lonestar. Well we hate to go to saturation, the sound is neutral without color, which is not great, it's mostly the microphones that are not really known to be good clean sound. I tried with two classic 57 is immediately better.

Then you push a little the gain of the Vox and we pass on the overdrive channel of Mesa, it's really not bad, thank you 496R in the neck which provides great sound for blues, blues-rock, and the bridge position is not bad for a sound to the AC / DC, so good! (The sound is even better with classic 57, I definitely suggest changing the pickups of origin for 57 classics for a good clear sound and reach the pinnacle for the blues)

Then we change the amp now, Mesa Dual Rectifier management, modern channel, and there .... Well it sounds actually not bad, the hard rock / metal is its vocation, it is safe and sure! If I look at the purchase price: 400 euros occas, well I'm still happy to have one like him for that price!

OVERALL OPINION

So in conclusion, I use it for 3 years, I play much less due to a purchase of a Heritage H535 and H157 one (I highly recommend this brand, check out his story and their means of production, you will amazed!).

I especially recommend to any guitarist wanting to acquire his first Gibson, wanting to play hard rock / metal. The report ITS / price (not quality / price, because given the violin, one wonders how she can leave her a lot more saturated in (a big thank you to the microphones to speak)) is fairly good for 400 euro and the sound it delivers big saturation. I hope the quality of wood is not the same for all these guitars because Gibson really down in the estimates of many guitarists over the past ten years, there is still time to change!

So a guitar to buy used, new price is far too high for the quality of the guitar, for the same price (700 euros) or a little lower, you run into a Samick / Greg Bennett (that is about to make lots of noise in the guitar world with a value / price) or Custom 77 or Cort, but less prestigious brands for better sound and better quality for the same price.

I purchased this guitar at a local music shop for about $550 (Lists for $630). Not too bad.

Let me start with the pick-ups... It comes with a 496R(neck) and a 500T(bridge), Gibson's highest output pickups. They have such a broad range of tones from accoustic clean, to a raw hard shredd mode with great harmonics. The elegant ebony fingerboard (Much better than cheap rosewood in my opinion) gives it a sweet look. Tuning stability is pretty impressive. The standard pearloid tuners hold down their own quite well. Plays great, and the action is as low as it gets.

I personally can't stand the tune-o-matic bridges. They are not locked in place, and can easily fall off, or mess with the intonation, which in then lessens sustain. When I first got it, the intonation was a bit whacky and I was experiencing some fret-buzz. The Flying V electronics configuration has that annoying input jack that sticks out like a D*CK from the front of the pickguard and is SUPER uncomfortable!
Also, Gibson puts the rear strap button in a HORRIBLE location (right at the tip) which makes the weight of the guitar pull the neck down!


The quality is descent, but not superb. It gets great tones at any volume, just plug into a good tube or solid state amp. Overall the hardware is good but not the best out there. The guitar would be perfect with some modifications to electronics, and location of components.

This guitar is a good starter guitar for getting into bigger brand names. BUT BEWARE, A NAME ON A HEADSTOCK DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING! The sound is great with all sorts tones. If I lost it, I wouldn't get another one. I like guitars with finishes as well. If you're looking for a perfect backup guitar, this will do the trick.

I got the Faded Flying V online at samedaymusic.com for $770 (because mine is left handed). I got this guitar because I had played the right handed version in the store and loved it so I went online to find it left handed. Luckily Gibson is totally left handed friendly so, you know, I got that one instead.

I really like the feel because the fret board has great action. I have a fender strat and I couldn't go really fast on it but then I got the V and I was ripping solos like nothing. I can't keep my eyes off the finish, it looks so inviting. And the tone incredibly warm but crunchy.

I could'nt really tell you what I do like because its an all around great guitar.

The constuction is great for gigging and jammin' with your buds but you cannot sit down with it, which kind of shows that the v was made for the stage. The shape with definately turn some heads. Its worth every penny.

My summary:

1) warm/crunchy tone
2) fast action
3) beautiful finish
4) too good for the price
5) made for the stage

I got this guitar at Mars Music just yesterday for $560 , when I was shopping around at their going out of business sale. I saw it hidden behind/below a few ltds so I picked it up and plugged it into a marshall and just jammed for a few minutes. It has a nice smooth feel to it , the finish makes it look like an old friend, it has all that the other V's have except the finish and crescent inlays. The best part is it only cost $560.. for a USA made gibson the regular price is around $620 and list is $900+ .

Personally I love the faded finish because it gives it a very nice look (Most of the pictures you see on the internet don't do it the justice it deserve)

The only thing I don't like about this guitar is the crescent inlays because I don't really like inlays on the fretboard besides on the side. Though I do think they give it a unique look.

I love the sheer perfection of the body construction on this one , it's so smooth and comfortable, when I'm standing up playing it , the balance is just right. Everything is in new good working condition, the volume and tone pots have no scratching or fading out or anything. The inlays are very nicely crafted and positioned too.

For under $900 , why wouldn't you want a nice new gibson Flying V ?

US-made, Gibson has not yet allowed dlocaliser under his own name!
Two Humbuckers raisin bread, a micro volume, one Tone 22 frets, mahogany body and bridge / tailpiece Tune-o-matic rigor. A visit to the Gibson site is the best thing to do for those who want prcises information on this subject

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs enjoyable. Much thinner than a Les Paul or an SG my taste is a highway as long as the strings are well RULES.
Those who tackle the form V by saying that you can not sit and play that is anything but practice should rush to buy a Godin or Vigier: if a achte V, because quon is a fan its shape, its look, its sound, its legends ... you name it! In return for that matter, Access in acute is screwed, and you can catch a mid 22me the box with virtually no effort.

As for weight, the guitar is trslgre, balance and well. It does not sting the nose as a Sg, for example.
We obtain easily trs trs sound good because the original pickups have a good potato. They will change if we want one more grain this or that, because their nature "raisin bread" their Confre all of the same stamp a modern and large enough output level.

SOUNDS

Being a fan of Rock, Hard, or Heavy Blues, this suited me faded Flying V ds the departure. Buy the era because I could not afford to give me a Les Paul, it was my second guitar (an Epiphone Les Paul APRS), and my first Gibson.
The grain of the house has a secret that is bold, to sing, it's full of sustain, it's cutting edge on the high, round the grave, trs versatile and powerful surcrot.
APRS uses have a Peavey Classic 30, I had a Mesa Boogie Mark II and now a Fender Blues Junior. His characters, more "brilliant" than the Les Paul for example transparat whatever the amp in which the branch.
I did change my fawn was that the pickups can be split. As the happy dsormais Owner 'of a Start, I think changing the original gibsons for Dimarzio more powerful story to reach a Heavy Mtal the Maiden or Priest, or sometimes a Start little worth

OVERALL OPINION

She follows me dsormais 3 years a few prs. The cot impractical to the V-shape long annoyed me even if the look is well worth: this guitar is probably one of the best guitars scne exists.
I had had the era bought for 780 euros, and I always judge the quality price ratio as excellent. The price has since fallen further but I think the quality frquence of CONTRL in Gibson also!

I would do exprience with this choice, even if it is mainly budgtaires reasons which led me to buy this MODEL prcis the era!

I draw your attention to the fact that on sries Faded, there are over guitars that sound bad. Let me explain: we must seek the "good numros" in many tmoignent Sg Les Paul faded faded or I could try. I think mine is one, because I can not get enough and no Flying V did me up Submitted forget mine.

UTILIZATION

I've stated time and again that I don't like the odd, angular shaped guitars. But I've always been intrigued by the Flying V guitars. Maybe it was seeing Hendrix, Albert King, or Billy Gibbons playing one that really piqued my curiosity, but I've always thought they looked rather special. So I finally decided to try one out. The Faded Flying V was the only V my local store had in stock, so I put it to the test. Firstly, and most obviously, the guitar is somewhat cumbersome to hold while in a seated position. The guitar must be held with the "arms" of the V shape astride one leg, and this results in a higher playing angle than most people are used to. As odd as that is, it actually makes the fretting arm more comfortable. The setup was great right out of the box, and I could get great tones right away.

SOUNDS

Again, another homerun from Gibson in the tonal department. This guitar has a thick, singing sustain from the neck position, and a nice, powerful cut out of the bridge. The guitar probably isn't terribly appropriate for all styles, but I could see someone using it in anything except country and jazz and pulling it off.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall, another great product from Gibson. The looks are classic, yet simple, and the tonal picture is nice. Playability is like that of any good Gibson, and your wallet won't suffer!

Guitar made in United States made in Nashville.
Mahogany body Maple neck 22 frets neck
496R and 500T pickups 2
Unlike its big sisters there is no the same work at the level of polish and comes in nice gigbag, electronics and violin are the same.
The red color faded painted with matt and absolutely sublime and actually gives the short side 1967.

UTILIZATION

The handle is a super nice, much more than his big sisters that I had the opportunity to test.
It's a flying thus access to acute, no problems.
Touch is very nice but it will take a small adjustment of the bridge tune o matic to lower the action of the strings the factory setting is too high.
Now talk about her because that's where it differs from its big sisters, the sound is huge for just one branch on a good amp.
The micro acute perfectly meets all the harmonics and stress when the microphone in his grave MAMA MIA clear.
I mainly play metal and this model has a lot more bite than its older sisters more expensive.

SOUNDS

This guitar is essentially rocker but it is suitable for lovers of very heavy metal and good rhythmic big greasy.
The handle is a highway for a model gibson course (not a vigier either) so for ultra-fast solos you still have some time to adapt.

OVERALL OPINION

Guitar purchased in the United States for the sum of $ 600 a few months ago and when I see the price in France (1300euros) I think that it is cheaper to go out there one week and buy a scratch than to the buy here in France because they abuse serious is the flight limits!
I tried other models Flying V that did not convince me in terms of its (too aggressive).
I also have a Black Beauty 59 Custom Shop, but the flying ... oh I crack.
I do it again this choice without any problem because the value price is monstrous but of course I'll buy it in the United States as I said before.

Made in United States. 22 frets ..... OCCAZ and I had purchased from in the pickup seymour jeff beck (which are really huge) instead of 500t and I always 496R in the neck pickup (besides the two microphones are not quite all) . truk was the only regret is the lack of a second tone knob parcqu'on is only one that is common to the two micro (not cool) but the only fault I found it .

UTILIZATION

It was a very big stick. this is my second guitar and before I had a round end like all Fender and I did not like. I filled the: a big fat stick ultra comfortable to play but to love. access to acute? ba is a flying question con. but of course it is easy access to the treble. you sound ba branch and sounds of the fire god !!!!! on the other hand of form is a bit Ambet parcqu'elle does not fit into a car trunk (and yes it is a great flying)! I would add that it is very easy to play sitting with a flying v. bcp anyone says otherwise, but you just have a little practice and personally I prefer to play sitting with my flying rather than a Start or something of the same form.

SOUNDS

So I play music at the metal scorpion from the most extreme in the genre of As I Lay Dying and it's perfect. she loves it. amp level is following behind a line6 spider ii thing and it's really not that great. ca line 6 of shit sounded a less correctly but its not give the gibson all abilities. after you get the gibson is typical: a well filled with medium and bold enough chaud.le clear sound is OK but frankly I do not use it very often but we can play very well to a very nice clear sound and sound distortion wow no complaints. level settings scratching it's amazing what you can do with just three buttons (two volume and one tone) moving from a pretty Aerosmith Killswitch Engage's always with a nice grain (not like my old scratched) I restates that my pickup is a seymour jeff beck and the alliance of the microphone and scratching cete is simply enormous. level after the sound of flying you throw anything and it takes all! all is well.

OVERALL OPINION

I use depui just over six months and I let her go. I even know why they put a bag because I am always with. when it was on the left the more it is simply enormous. models in this price range I've ever tried in my parcque bled best guitars in the store ca not grow on trees but I had to lay in a cash converter OCCAZ a 650euro !!!!! they really did not know what had su'ils. I jump parcque I should have bought a Flying V model if I have a tray this year but I got it before naa.c is really the guitar that made me dream and that the largest the chance I managed to get a cash converter shop. with the experience I do it again but this choice is not often fying v OCCAZ much less often a 650euro!

Everything has been said on this subject ...

This skyscraper proudly 'made in United States "... mention that commands respect!

It is a very classic flying v is: no particular innovation!
The fittings are consistent with the rule: there is the tune o matic torque / stop bar so simple and effective! The path ends of the strings in these vintages to be mechanical: Green Keys, also present on the SG and other Lespaul ...
The couple 496R/500T Gibson, who also equips the Explorer and Les Paul Classic ...
Handle very classic, very round ... gibsonnien!
The only change is the amount of patent ... Here, there is a single layer!
Economic detail, but definitely not devoid of charm, I think ...

A skyscraper of the classic with an arsenal very flattering ... you expect a favorable review from me!

UTILIZATION

Ah ... In this regard, the Flying V is a source of debate!
The handle is round, rustic, no doubt ... it's Gibson!
The verb is very pleasant ... it does not stick with sweat ... the patent is so fun! key in Ebony is very nice as well ... everything is excellent bill! personally handles this kind of thick suit me perfectly! but they put off pourraons fans soft C fenderiens Ibanesiennes and highways! and again ...
The classic form, but timeless and the junction box to the 17 th allow access to acute exceptional ... we can use without complex highest notes and playing November rain without the risk of scoliosis!
Ergonomics in my opinion ... a table not too large, a light guitar, perfectly balanced! it is easy to play it standing, but sitting, exercise is more dangerous ...
That said, a little less for strap clips impractical or inappropriate ...
But I attribute in no way a 9 has this beauty! A guitar is well balanced, easily accessible and incredibly sexy! a 10, again ...

SOUNDS

So my musical style ... I'm crazy hard rock! Aerosmith, ac / dc, whitesnake, guns n 'roses through kiss, poison, motley crue ... as well say that this guitar fills me at the highest point!
encourage the woods sounds loose, warm, presentations ... mahogany body and neck, and ebony for the key ... species are the most noble!
Has already empty, the sounds are very flattering!
Hype is a vamp! Whether it's on the Marshall, Engl, Peavy, Mesa, it sounds divine! it is a gibson not forget!
The sounds are identical to the model factor V 67 'reissue ... and for good reason, the microphones are the same ...
496R in the neck is great! Lespaul a less round, but he fills his role brilliantly ... for a clean sound to die for! its a large, dense, very rich and well defined!
The 500T is killer ... powerful, present, slamming ... for fans of riffkitu! it is built for distortion fat and imposing ...
Suffice to say that we have in hand a very versatile guitar: all styles are affordable!
In all positions, the flying is impressive ... presence, clarity, subtlety and power! all styles are at your fingertips! again a well-deserved 10 property!

OVERALL OPINION

So you'll understand that Flying v seduced me in every way!
Gibson does not innovate, the next classic vintage is predominant and indeed very reassuring!
The single layer of varnish that justifies the price of the beast is more pleasant, both in terms of touch as the visual ... it's nice to get out that guitar of his Gig Bag, to speak or simply contemplate for hours ...

I dream of this guitar since I started ... I also owns a Gibson Les Paul Standard that I am fully satisfied ... Flying v but certainly stands out because of its class, and his presence sound!

French market requires us exorbitant prices, that is why I bought this guitar not VPC ... and the vagaries gibsonniens do not help matters!
900 for a gibson is a quite reasonable price, in my opinion ...
transition to a luthier will make truly lethal weapon!

I hear you mutter "this guy is crazy ... 10,10,10 ..."
Would love blind? and deaf?

One thing is certain, you will not go unnoticed with this guitar ... And finally, I paraphrase Dee Snider (Twisted Sister) "PLAY IT LOUD MUTHA!"

Well, it's the Gibson faded worn cherry, so I'm forgiving it cost me 599 Euros book in two days in Bordeaux guitareshop
Thank you to UPS bought my last guitar on the net a year ago has lost by COLIPOSTE does not reimburse for the time

Well, everything is said before ...

UTILIZATION

Handle a larger than my other guitars, it makes me a little weird, but it is enjoyable. A bit like it hangs because there is no patent.
In terms of finishes, nothing to say except the frets on the bottom of the handle, which we tend to hang a little, but nothing serious.
In terms of pickups, bridge pickup is quite high. I dropped a little, because with a good offense and the overdrive, it gave me some kind of "plop". Feeling better now.
Weight very correct.

SOUNDS

In terms of styles, it fits well enough that I do.
I intended rather for the rock, some metal and blues.
I played with a few pedals and valbee EH Metal muff style and Wha.
As expected with the double, it is rather a fat, very nice for the distortion.
Little used in its clear, it is versatile.
I mostly use the bridge pickup. Never too loved humbuckers in neck. I much prefer the simple handle on each strat.
However, the two couples give us a good balance and is ideal for rhythm in the clear.

OVERALL OPINION

My first Gibson ...
I use it for the past two months,
I have not tried before, just ordered from Thomman for € 577, no regrets!
Good value I think.
So do it again, at the same price, I do it again.

Ben makes Mahogany United States ... etc etc ... 500T

UTILIZATION

Ben is my guitar ... Premire I started also pq rv I always have a Flying ... I bought two years ago and I started to take its course arrives.
I like the handle. I have a Washburn N2 and I tried a Fender Start prfr my bin is the one followed in the Washburn and not at all like the Fender Start

I like to sit jou and I find my hair cell position by putting a V between my thighs.

And easily obtained a Son's nothing she sings dj empty.

For me it against bin of small attacks lctroniques now the knobs on a sound dirty at times. but cleaning with a bomb for lctronique and here we go again.

SOUNDS

Ben I have not really my style I'm trying to learn, it sounds great on the Hard Rock 80's AC / DC Aerosmith, it sounds as powerful blues rhythm.

I play on a poor thing thing pods II and also a peavey on my progress ... The Peavey is a killing with.
The clean sound is tip top is hot short powerful orgasm every note
In its Disto a balance but also heavy it is better to light a kind JMP 1 preamp with the right rglages you can do everything from blues to metal it's a great worry-free shovel.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since I was 2 years ago beginners.
I love the vacuum m'vite connect anything while watching the evening tl.
But an amp on the super-metal crunch with lamps and is the fte.

The report quality price seems quite good 600 a guitar of this quality with the myth as well be no hesitation

And yes the more I learn the more I play and discovering new possibilities above. brief it continues to amaze me.

Manufacturing-United States (the United States made in small derrire the head: p)

-22 Frets, Micro Gibson 500T in the bridge position, and micro-496R in the neck position.

Floyd-No, no vibrato, too bad: / but good ^ ^

-2 Volumes Grente that the microphone volume which he is affiliated Tone 1 and 3 positions slecteur.

Otherwise-level timber is the acajoux everywhere (neck and body) with a handle screwed non al. Some say that the handle seems their fragile personal I play it up like a brute enchainer ranges, move, and I never felt any fragility.

-Perfect finish: o Well it's not 67 so no polish (this is the only diffrence with 67) but personal example I prfre cherry color without the black coating varnish (for seeing in real) APRS there and decide what you are: p

UTILIZATION

-While some argue that the handle of the fact that there is a layer of varnish can sometimes hang, but it's true that my trs trs rarely happened once and because I had play 4 hours straight ...

Otherwise, the handle is enjoyable, Access in acute is not too bad except for the dernire box but hey it's all to see.

-I t enjoyable surprised by the weight, this guitar is trslgre, is easy to play standing, does not sting the nose. By playing against sitting is another story, as V requires you have to play with one of the "pasta" of the guitar between the legs. If for some it will have little time trs adaptation to other and it is particularly my case I still have a little trouble but hey, do j'espre ending for.

Bon V-shape traditional APRS here's what SA FUCKING ALL xd

SOUNDS

Good sound ahhhh xD

Well as a fan of old school heavy metal, I do not qu'tre straw!
I'm a fan of Judas Priest, Accept, Iron Maiden, etc. ....
And this guitar gives exactly the sound of these groups to be little except the iron maiden.
Then it's on APRS requires that comes with the amp because if you use a little amp even if it is not so bad that its quality (for example I play a roland cube 30 watt )
the sound will not really excellent.
APRS location I had to test the guitar on a tube amp, its dchire all! (Back to the 80's, 90s)
It is really the power of the microphones, they are quite low in the ax, the 500T is a little highlight mdiums what truly out of super heavy riff old school. As for the 496R is not also be used for very fat and powerful riffs and solo's it makes a really great sound!
As against the 500T is better for artificial harmonics.
APRS this guitar is fairly versatile in dbrouille plutt clean it a lot and you can aisment play blues, jazz, rock etc ... (Mention the position for spcial intermdiaire mics really makes a super cool jazz sound).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one month now, and I love it!
Great sound, I wanted the heavy bin I served! And even if you want to put trash in death by sending crazy distortion, the pickups will follow!
V standard vintage look I say more especially as the price and standard quality report!
When we know that the only diffrence between the Faded and 67 is just the veneer, there is no single ahsiter a second, I test the two guitars that sound exactly the same !
In addition to the faded because there not all the varnish layer, the guitar will be easier with relic place where the paint will go away! (You can then make believe "Yes do it ten years that I have xD.")
Another good point, there is a super Luthra the top, so you can rev well change the pickups, its always sound (eg bulk mtalleux put EMG 81 85 gibson makes the monster!).

I would do without hsiter is choice, it's really a great guitar trs well built, with a great sound ... need I say more!

9 / 10 because perfection is not really great but scratches.
