Gibson Custom Shop 1958 Mahogany Flying V Reissue Antique Natural

The Gibson Custom Shop 1958 Mahogany Flying V Reissue in Antique Natural captures the radical innovation of Gibson’s most daring design of the 1950s. Originally ahead of its time, the Flying V has since become one of the most iconic electric guitars in rock and metal history. This reissue is meticulously crafted by the Gibson Custom Shop, honoring the original all-mahogany construction while blending vintage authenticity with modern precision.

This historic model is built with a solid mahogany body, quarter-sawn mahogany neck, and Indian rosewood fingerboard, all dressed in an Antique Natural nitrocellulose lacquer finish that lets the wood breathe and age gracefully. Equipped with Custombucker Alnico III pickups, this Flying V delivers warm, articulate vintage tones with plenty of bite and sustain. From blistering leads to rich chords, the guitar’s sound is as bold as its design.
