Description
This gorgeous '58 Korina Flying V Reissue is a remarkably spot-on recreation of the originals Gibson introduced to the world nearly 70 years ago. Featuring a light weight & exceptionally resonant Korina body in a natural finish, allowing the beautiful wood grain to shine through. The chunky profile Korina neck feels super comfy & shows off some really pretty flame figuring. The dual CustomBuckers sound fantastic & deliver muscular yet dynamic tones. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action so it's ready to perform straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: This guitar was actually sold brand new in our shop to one of our longtime customers who just recently traded it back to us. It's still in near mint condition with only some very mild surface scratches & an ever so tiny chip in the finish on the back of the body around the high E string ferrule.
Neck: Chunky profile, one-piece solid Korina neck with cream side-dots. One-piece Indian rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays. Frets are clean with no wear. Raised Gibson headstock logo & true historic truss rod cover. Kluson Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works perfectly.
Body: Two-piece, solid Korina body in natural finish. String-thru tailpiece with brass chevron & ABR-1 bridge. 4-ply black pickguard & gold hardware. Guitar weighs 7 lbs 11 oz.
Electronics: Gibson CustomBuckers with 3-way toggle switch. Dual volume & master tone controls with black "top hat" knobs. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Period-correct, original hardshell case included along with COA & hang tags.
