I've always been a fan of "V" shaped guitars and, last year, I happened to come across a small Ukrainian builder by the name of "GT Guitars" who had done a unique take on the traditional Flying V design as one of their very first builds.
They called it the "V8" model and it certainly had a modern, muscular appearance with uniquely rounded edges that surprisingly didn't look out of place:
Well, as an early Xmas present to myself, I reached out to the owner, Mikhailo, and decided to order a custom V8 model of my own in a "lime green metallic" finish.
That was nearly 6 months ago and, despite being quoted a 3-month build time, it's FINALLY on its way here!
This is one of the last progress shots he sent me, right after it was adorned with a brand new set of SD Black Winters!
The color must be hard to photograph, because it has looked slightly different in every picture he's sent me!
I'm super excited to see this guitar in person and finally get to play it!
