Gibson The V CMT Cherry Sunburst 1981 Electric Guitar
Description
A Flying V with '80s charm! This guitar features a bound maple top and back and a vibrant cherry sunburst finish.
While retaining '70s design elements such as a round headstock and volute neck, it also features unique features such as a pickguard-less maple body and maple neck, with an ebony fingerboard.
The neck has a natural C-shape, and while the frets are slightly low, they are medium-sized and offer smooth playability. The pickups have been replaced with DiMarzio PAFs, capable of producing everything from powerful clean tones to heavy distortion sounds.
Some parts have been replaced, and the guitar is in impressive condition despite being over 40 years old, but playability is of course impeccable, making it a rock-solid instrument.
