All user reviews of 5/5 for the Gibson Flying V '67 Reissue

Already explained above. I accuracy of all it is a model Ebony manufactured in 2012.

USE

The handle is very agrabe, but sometimes we have a little trouble navigating it because of the quality of the varnish that is not the best.

Weight: one of the biggest quality of this guitar !! It is lightweight, lightweight, lightweight so .. And this coupled exemplary balance, this is the perfect scene guitar! With flying, back pain or continually get the green handle up, we do not know!

Is the access to acute easy? Erm young man, you the causes of flying even your grand mother slap solo and down to the bottom of the handle in the fingers slip.

To play sitting: you will cheeks 5 sec, you've found the trick bar-point.



SONORITS

Since I only play metal, hardcore ect, it is perfect! Microphones dangle all they have and what has that sends!

I play mostly on the 500T at the bridge. It does not have the precision of an EMG, but cons I find it has a higher output level. So it is a very good mic that would be a shame to replace.
I'm not talking about the 496R, I almost never play it so I do not know him very well.

So I play a Peavey 6505 with pedal Maxon OD 808. The result with V terribe, simply.

So the distortion is the field of predilection of flying, but I do not doubt that with good rglages, we can take everything the V in areas where the distortion is not queen.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I have my V last year, well I not going to lick so early.

Its strengths are thus its weight, although obviously mouth and the 500T which dmnage!
I just regret this varnish that hangs on the handle.

I had it for a little over 900 euros new. I find the correct price. This is not sr it was finishing a Lespaul Standard but who cares! She has the mouth, it is beautiful, it sounds!


I would do this choice without hsiter. I took a blow on head and I have never regretted.

PS: I hopes to one day fall on a good occas and make me a white 90's with Ebne key. In some people after they are superior quality. I would like to one day be tested myself.

This is a wonderful model of Gibson guitar (in my opinion the best brand in the world).
Made as it should be in the United States as any Gibson models.
The general pattern is super simple, but what else has this guitar legend?
A handle 22 frets with a rather round shape allows a perfect fit in the hand ... 2 micro ceramics with incredible presence even higher than on a Les Paul (Jimi Page What forgive me) ... And a Tune-o-matic, the invincible Gibson home.
2 knobs ... volume 1 tone ... The regulars at Gibson will not be lost ...
Ultimately a true gem.

UTILIZATION

The neck is really very suitable for the palm which allows a very fast game despite some gros.La round shape of the guitar itself in "V" allows access to acute incomparable!
Mr Mc Carty the creator of this guitar did a good job and the guitar is perfectly balanced making it possible to be really comfortable during the game .. arm also is easy to install on the body for maximum energy savings

The sound ... Ha sound ... and I would just need to not only hand and never let go ...

SOUNDS

My inspiration are quite large ... blues and rockabilly to metal of Iron Maiden through the rock and roll New York Dolls ... and really this guitar is still a winning number ...
I play on a Marshall Vintage Jmt of pure 70ies void of course why try to spoil everything ...
The neck pickup has a blue its a crazy thrill as the bridge pickup makes a crunchy sound or snapping ... its really the crunch is beautifully suited to rock and roll ... true ... 70 years of ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 12 years and the guitar was really well preserved (c tt after a gibson)
The special is my favorite bass response is really great.
My choice for this guitar was brought after having tried at least every Gibson and many other brands (very disappointing that said a hand can be Gretsh)
value for money is very good ... same too ...
Indeed it is I: Mérais push a little rant against fanzine Audio ... I do not understand the steady decline in the price of this guitar ... A price below € 1000 for an instrument rating of this quality is unacceptable!! The proof is simple ... no one sells below that price !!!!!
Here I wanted to know what was going on ... (I hope an answer by mail)
It is obvious that with experience I would definitely remake this choice

Gibson makes the United States. Guitar 22 frets, two humbuckers (496R in the neck and 500T for the bridge: two microphones raisin bread). Gibson Tune O Matic Systm. 2 potentiomtres volume (humbuckers) and a switch to Tone + 3 positions. Mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard.
Regrettably, the key is not bne, available on New Century in the same brand. Otherwise, good violin trs, trs good components!

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs trs enjoyable! So it is surprising how the game can vary from the guitarist a guitar each other in the quality of the violin! We are prsence a handle but still not solid enough for even one can have a game nergique (labor power of the hand). A handle trs trs subtly Labor source of much pleasure) Access in dernires frets is ais but requires a little practice given the unorthodox shape of the guitar. Ergonomics, the balance of the guitar is amazing! This is an extremely good guitar that does not tire balance guitarist. It is not too heavy (fatigue of the lumbar and shoulders) or too lgre (guitar moves all the time, trs boring live). Dpend sound of the string electro acoustic guitar more than her, but even given the quality of the components and the violin, it is unlikely to be due in comparisons bass guitars or mid-range! I REALLY think that after a minimum of customization (microphones, mechanical etc. ..) you get an outstanding high-end guitar!

SOUNDS

I play all in all styles and this guitar is versatile, although it has its limits. This is a guitar that will give the best of it even registers in punk rock, rock seventies, blues rock, alternative, progressive. on the other hand I do not think it fits jazz (too strong, too sharp) or the large mtal (microphones cramique well but when not even the same performance as Alnico type or amplified EMG 81). So if you really want to move hardcore, think change their microphones! I play on an amp ENGL SCREAMER 50 watts, so all the lights. It is a joy, the bond Flying / Engl works perfectly, I play ultra prcis and warm! My string effect Marschall has a compressor that allows me to highlight my clean sounds and my solos distos I possde a distortion pedals MXR Double Shot, a whawha Zakk Wylde. Et. That's it! Not really need more to get a good sound with a guitar and an amp in a clear quality sound is trs prcis notament with the bridge pickup, with distortion, to avoid too much confusion in sound, I put the slecteur position fixes and two humbuckers. Nothing shocks me in sound and I'm fine rflchir before changing the original pickups (can be a pair of Bare Knuckles Mules from home).

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for six months. I absolutely love everything about this guitar part can be the difficulty it brings in a sitting position but who cares because it is made to play live! I tried at least 7 or 8 guitars before buying it from the bottom to the top of the range trs trs .. The ratio quality price is surprising as the price seems ridiculous compared the quality of the instrument .. But, hey, good for us! Into debt to buy the new t scratch the utmost sense that I did with my money for ten good years!

All adj t said, some small precision: the finish is Russia, tuit rigid impeccable. Srieux.

UTILIZATION

Some precision: round peace that is well in hand, the last box ACCS effortless balance and trslgre guitar. enjoyable play is virtually no time to adapt.

SOUNDS

It is used for the rock / metal of 80/90/moderne Annes, couples with a Marshall JCM 2000. It is perfectly comfortable in these ranges of sound and gives me a versatility that had not before: I jou emg 81 on the last 2 years which are excellent pickups, but are a little raw clean: suitable for some arpges but a little trouble with real agreements. The 500T sending a gain of hell and is prcis, harmonics fuse, the 496R is most comfortable in it clean o Submitted as a micro soft and round. The combination of the two is apprciable and leaves a good quality sound that lends itself to play some solos with a particular grain type ... it's a guitar rock / metal without hsitation which sends all that emg 81 in the sense that the loss of precision in distortion is compensated by a much more beautiful clean sound. I made an impeccable vrment up to my expectations and I gots.

OVERALL OPINION

I compared a lot of guitars to find one I really should in the range of 1000 euros. With the drop in price, but it remains nanmoins CHRE affordable for all fans of rock is a clever and useful purchase you will not regret ... clever? yes dcote low, good preservation in time, by indmodable DEFINITIONS because it does not fit the current fashion o some brands are good guitars but not store well and are compltement d value after 5 years ...
At 975 euros, it is hard to beat and also by his DCAL look that leaves no indiffrent.

Gibson Flyin V United States, reissue 67

-Mahogany body of good quality (not the case faded)

- Micro ceramic high output level and excellent dynamics

-Ebony fingerboard which makes more crystalline clean / cold and nasty distortions much tighter grain and

UTILIZATION

- Handle very nice, unlimited access to acute

- Weight easy to handle during long sessions!

- Great look great and excellent ergonomics standing sitting must adapt, but the sound reproduction will pay for the effort!

SOUNDS

Most excellent guitar styles for blues, rock, metal.

In jazz it can provide, but it is not his area of ​​excellence is clear!

I play combo Mesa Boogie Express 25W, and it sent a touch of madness! I often compared with custom Telecasters that I tried was to a great guitar with the same grain / vibration that TV ... and more: micro managing the metal!

OVERALL OPINION

I have tried many of the Gibson United States, and Customs.
The Flying V is the road and even took the front face softened a little scratch like the SG and Les Paul (except maybe the Les Paul Supreme = my dream).

Perfect for metal, good performance of acordage, sustain huge pinch harmonics easy, harmonious sound and loaded midrange and treble, as a telecaster foil at will (especially in middle position).

Gibson hat!

I will definitely buy as the version in rosewood handle,
for fun

-Made in USA
496R and 500T pickups, gibson
Volumes 1 and -2 Tone

UTILIZATION

A guitar made for solos!
accessibility to the treble can not be better. Lgre, it does not dtruit the back of the guitar. The trick is to play sitting ... not very practical, we must put the guitar between his legs as if they were playing on a classic.

SOUNDS

The sound is sharp, loaded with harmonics in the treble but not as a SG. The 500T brings sounds aggressive and 496R softens the sound of the guitar, making all remaining low round a bit dry.

OVERALL OPINION

The sunburst finish is very rare and beautiful, it has a brotherhoods cluck a little vintage. I've had 2 years and do not separate myself!
A very good report quality price (which is not in n'oulions gibson!)
