Very disappointing
Curt_R 06.04.2022
After a 6 month wait, I was very excited to finally have the guitar delivered.

Unfortunately, after opening the case, I noticed what looked like several splotches of white filler in the fretboard.
There a a couple of small chips in the paint to bare wood at the end of the fretboard.
The binding hasn't been scraped squarely and there is a big bubble of paint, most likely with a paint chip underneath, right under your eyeline at the end of the fretboard.

Some positives are that it was reasonably packaged, with no movement in the Gibson box. Apart from the mentioned issues above, the rest of the guitar looks fine.

I didn't plug it in, since I was very dissapointed with the cosmetic issues, so can't comment on the sound.

Hopefully I'll get a replacement without any blemishes without too long a wait.

Der Klassiker

Ich habe lange darauf gewartet und nun endlich ist sie da - meine Flying V und ganz ehrlich hat sich jeder Monat und jede Woche des Wartens gelohnt. Einziger Negativpunkt: Gibson, die peinlichen Gitarrenriemen könnt ihr euch echt sparen. Das ist gar nix. Die Gitarre ist sehr leicht und gut ausbalanciert. Sowohl sitzend als auch stehend spielen ist aufgrund der Form natürlich sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig. Die Gitarre ist top verarbeitet und hat einen sehr speziell-genialen Sound. Die Klangfarbe ist einmalig. Beim Einstellen der Pickups hätte die Fabrik noch etwas mehr Zeit investieren dürfen aber insgesamt war das Setup in Ordnung. Jeder, der mal etwas Anderes als eine Strat oder eine Paula spielen will: Kaufen!

Wollte schon immer eine ...

Und was soll ich sagen - sie ist einfach nur wunderschön - Bespielbarkeit top - lediglich die Saitenlage war geringfügig zu niedrig eingestellt - für mich der Inbegriff des oldschool Rock/Metal's

Amo mi flying V, siempre quise una y ya la tengo. Suene poderosa potente, pero tambien delicada. El único pero es que el numero de serie viene pintado y apenas se vislumbra pero da igual.
