Gibson Review: XPL Flying V

History:

Purchase: How? Cash. Where? Pawn Shop. Why? It's a Gibson! How much? $150.00.

What I Like About This Gibson XPL Flying V: Plays amazing, sounds terrific, no noise, can be very subtle and clean all the way around to sounds that'll put small animals in therapy!

What I Do NOT Like About The Gibson XPL Flying V: Kahler double locking whammy bar tends to drop it waaay outta tune when dive bombing :(

Gibson XPL Flying V Quality Rating: It's a Gibson, need I say more? OK, Quality's outstanding, action has always been spot-on, stays in tune without whammy bar backflips, sounds like God pointed his finger out of the jack, through my pedals and out my amp!

Review Summary: I went into my local pawnshop, as usual, expecting overpriced, questionable quality guitars, but when I saw it, I had to have it... when I got it home, I saw just how much it's been played.. The guy before me had to either have died or lost it to an ex-wife... Because from the way this was used, nobody would have let it go without a fight.

Rating of this Gibson product: 4
