The V to Beat
Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson's legacy through accuracy, authenticity and attention to detail.
The Flying V Custom adds upscale "Black Beauty" appointments to one of Gibson's boldest, most legendary designs. The result is guitar that exudes style and distinction -- a statement piece backed up with unparalleled Gibson tone and playability. From the solid ebony fingerboard to the split-diamond headstock inlay, it is an undeniable modern classic worthy of the "Custom" name.
