Used 2023 Gibson Original Collection Limited Edition ’70s Flying V Mirror
Sonic Evaluation
Mirror, mirror, on the wall: who's the sickest, shreddingest Flying V of them all? Well, the answer is easy: this gently-used limited-edition 2023 '70s Flying V Mirror, of course! Right from the get-go, it has the perfect combination of muscle and gristle that practically forces you to stank face when you hit the low E string--you know the feeling I'm talking about! The bridge pickup is a brawny rock delight worthy of Thor, with tight, sculpted bass response, mids that punch like a middleweight champion, and sizzling, open trebles. The neck pickup is thick, with broad vocal midrage response, deep woody lows, and glassy, singing trebles. The attack is also uber-articulate and percussive, which allows you to ladle on the gain with a shovel and maintain clarity.

All in all, if you're looking for a Flying V with stylish looks and a bad attitude, you have only to look into the mirror to see that this serial will carry you to Pointy Guitar Valhalla (which is like normal Valhalla but with way more MXR distortion pedals).
Condition Report
This Mirror Flying V is in fantastic shape! It shows light signs of normal use with no sizable dings or scratches, and the hardware has tarnished very lightly. The only real noticeable cosmetic imperfection is an area of lacquer disruption (or maybe solvent bubbles) about the size of a dollar coin on the neck by the treble-side of the 13th fret. The frets show extremely light signs of wear (in fact, virtually none!), so it's ready to rock for a long time! It comes with its original hardshell case, too. [collapse]
