Sold! - Gibson Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix Pschedelic 1967 Flying V

Designed by the legendary Gibson Guitar Custom Shop, and authorized by the Hendrix Estate, as an exact reproduction of Hendrix's famous hand-painted 1967 Flying V, the new Jimi Hendrix Psychedelic Flying V offers guitarists unsurpassed playability and classic tone. In addition, the instrument features detailed artwork recreated by master luthier and artist Bruce Kunkel. Purchased by Hendrix in 1967 and used on tour throughout Europe in 1967 and 1968, Hendrix's original Gibson Flying V has the distinguishing feature of having Jimi's own psychedelic hand-painted artwork adorning the top and sides creating a truly unique appearance reminiscent of the late 1960's. Originally painted with what appears to be nail polish, the Gibson Custom Shop has sourced and used materials which reproduce the same sense of depth and texture to the guitar's one-of-a-kind artwork, while maintaining the strictest standards in creating faithful reproductions of all of the original Flying V's materials and hardware. The 'Inspired By' guitars are all handmade instruments crafted by Gibson's famous Custom Shop, featuring one-of-a-kind looks, style, and tone. The result, an instrument of unsurpassed playability and tone, is an original work of art that can be beautifully displayed or proudly played. Paying tribute to Hendrix's role as musical innovator and guitar visionary, Gibson has produced a limited run of 300 of these Custom Shop instruments. The guitar comes complete with a Gibson Custom Shop case, certificate of authenticity, and custom care kit. This guitar is number 299 of 300! PLEASE EMAIL OR CALL FOR MORE PHOTOS OR INFO!
