Gibson V-Factor X Flying V Electric Guitar

product description
The Gibson Flying V '67 V Factor is a modern update of Gibson's classic axe. The original Flying V of 1958 was so far ahead of its time that even the first reissues, almost 10 years later, were only moderately successful. Finally, in the late '60s and early '70s, progressive rockers embraced the V, and the 1967 version lives on today as the V-Factor. Features include 496R and 500T ceramic humbuckers, a Tune-o-matic bridge with a Stopbar tailpiece, a mahogany body, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard (or ebony on Classic White) with 22 frets and green key tuners.


Pickups
496R "Hot Ceramic"
The 496R "Hot Ceramic" is a smokin' neck pickup with incredible sustain and cutting power. Its high-output ceramic magnet adds more highs with increased definition and no muddiness. Factory-installed 496R pickups have two conductor wiring.

500T "Super Ceramic"
The 500T delivers no-holds-barred, in-your-face hard rock licks. The powerful multi-ceramic magnet structure enables this monster to cover lots of territory. It can scream or growl - never losing its rich combination of enhanced lows and crystal clear highs. Factory-installed 500T pickups have two conductor wiring.
