Flying V 7 String - New From Gibson

I've never been a huge fan of the Flying V shape myself, but I do recognize that it's become very popular with a lot of people since the body type was first introduced in 1958.

In fact Gibson only launched the web page for the new 7 string two days ago, and it already has over 350 Facebook likes!

If you are a Flying V fan, then you're probably going to like this new release with it's special trimmings, gold is after all a heavy metal.

Here's an overview of the special features:

• Solid mahogany body with high-gloss Ebony finish
• Slim 7-string neck profile
• EMG 707 neck and EMG 81-7 bridge pickups
• Gold "V" string-thru tailplate and tune-o-matic bridge
• Gold Steinberger gearless tuners

The MSRP is $2,129

If you do decide to buy one you'll be happy with the level of service - you also get a Gibson hardshell "V" case and owner's manual, and it's covered by Gibson's Limited Lifetime Warranty and 24/7/365 Customer Service.
