FS: 2006 faded cherry Gibson Flying V (2-piece body)

[uOpt]

[SOLD]

I wanted to wait for Christmas but the man-cave is exploding, I need to get some unused toys out.

This is 2006 USA-made Gibson Faded Flying V. I think a sale with no pickups makes the most sense since most people here have a million pickups. Comes with original padded Gibson-branded gigbag. Has numerous dings that are pretty visible on the faded "finish" but no breaks or cracks. One of the pots has been replaced with a push-pull. Non-original strap buttons and pickguard screws.

This particular guitar sounds very warm and full. 2-piece body, not one of those patchwork fadeds.

Is $425 shipped/paypaled a fair price? Again, that is without pickups. Check pictures for dings before deciding.

I'd say it's an excellent price! I got one of those, it's quite the guitar for the money!!

Looks like a fair deal to me. On this forum, selling without pickups makes perfect sense.

Do you know if it came with 250K pots or 500k?

The two original ones are probably 300s. Dunno about the pushy one. I hope I get a chance to have a look later today. I knew I shouldn't have assembled it back together

Pots are 250 Kohm for the regular ones and 500 Kohm for the push-pull.
