{"product_id":"70s-flying-v-antique-natural","title":"Gibson 70s Flying V Antique Natural Flying V Electric Guitar","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Icon Returns: Gibson's 70s Flying V\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWalk into rehearsal with this, and everyone knows you mean business. The Flying V has been turning heads since the '50s, but the '70s version brought its own vibe — bound rosewood fingerboard, silver reflector knobs, and that unmistakable Antique Natural finish over solid mahogany. This isn't a guitar that apologizes. It's bold, it's confident, and it sounds every bit as good as it looks. Whether you're riffing through classic rock covers or writing your own anthems, the 70s Flying V delivers the tone and attitude the era demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGibson built this one with vintage-inspired 70s Tribute humbuckers that are hand-wired with Orange Drop capacitors — the same components that defined the sound of countless records from that golden decade. The SlimTaper neck profile makes it fast and comfortable, while the solid mahogany body and rosewood fingerboard give you rich midrange and articulate highs. Chrome hardware, a white 3-ply pickguard, and those distinctive black top hat knobs with silver reflectors complete the look. It's a guitar that commands attention, and it's ready to deliver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for players who want something more than just another guitar. If you've been eyeing a V for years or you're ready to add a statement piece to your collection, the 70s Flying V has the specs, the heritage, and the sound to back it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eClassic Tonewoods and Time-Tested Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foundation of this guitar is a solid mahogany body paired with a mahogany set neck. Mahogany is known for its balanced tonal profile — warm lows, punchy mids, and a treble response that cuts through without being harsh. The set neck joint improves sustain and resonance, giving notes room to breathe and bloom. Gibson's SlimTaper neck profile keeps things fast and comfortable, with a 24.75-inch scale length and a 12-inch radius rosewood fingerboard that feels natural whether you're bending strings or playing rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bound rosewood fingerboard is a signature detail from the '70s era Flying Vs, and it's accented with acrylic dot inlays. You get 22 medium jumbo frets, a Graph Tech nut with a 1.695-inch width, and Grover Rotomatic tuners with kidney buttons for stable tuning. The aluminum Nashville Tune-o-Matic bridge and stop bar tailpiece deliver excellent string-to-body contact, contributing to the guitar's sustain and tonal clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e70s Tribute Humbuckers and Hand-Wired Electronics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGibson loaded this Flying V with a pair of uncovered 70s Tribute humbuckers — one in the neck position, one in the bridge. These pickups are designed to capture the character of the humbuckers that powered the sounds of the 1970s: rich, warm, and expressive. The hand-wired circuit uses Orange Drop capacitors, which are prized for preserving clarity and tonal detail when you roll back the tone control. You get two volume controls, one master tone, and a 3-way toggle switch for pickup selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electronics are straightforward and versatile. Roll off the tone for smooth, singing lead lines, or open everything up for aggressive, punchy rhythm work. The uncovered pickups give you a slightly brighter response compared to covered humbuckers, and they look the part too. Whether you're playing clean or driving an amp hard, the 70s Tribute pickups respond dynamically to your playing style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHardware, Finish, and Iconic Visual Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGibson didn't skip any details when bringing the 70s Flying V back. The gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish in Antique Natural lets the mahogany grain show through, giving each guitar its own unique character. Chrome hardware throughout — from the bridge to the tuners — keeps the look clean and classic. The white 3-ply pickguard, black top hat knobs with silver reflectors, and cream switch tip are all period-correct touches that tie the whole aesthetic together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar ships with a hardshell case and Gibson's accessory kit. It's strung from the factory with Gibson .010-.046 gauge strings, ready to play out of the box. The 17-degree headstock angle and solid construction mean this is a guitar built to last, just like the originals that inspired it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid mahogany body with gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish in Antique Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMahogany set neck with SlimTaper profile for fast, comfortable playing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBound rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and 12-inch radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e70s Tribute humbuckers (neck and bridge) hand-wired with Orange Drop capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum Nashville Tune-o-Matic bridge with aluminum stop bar tailpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrover Rotomatic tuners with kidney buttons and Graph Tech nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24.75-inch scale length and 1.695-inch nut width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrome hardware with black top hat knobs featuring silver reflectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite 3-ply pickguard and acrylic dot inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes hardshell case and Gibson accessory kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gibson\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70s Flying V\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e DSVS00ANCH1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
