Gibson Jimi Hendrix Psychedelic Flying V Hand Painted 007

Get ready to experience the spirit of Jimi Hendrix with the Gibson Jimi Hendrix Psychedelic Flying V Hand Painted guitar. This one-of-a-kind instrument, part of Gibson's "Inspired By" series, is a true masterpiece, capturing the essence of the psychedelic era and Jimi's unique artistic expression. This guitar is not just a rare and beautiful instrument, but it also boasts a truly remarkable serial number: 007.

Originally used by Jimi on tour in Europe during 1967 and 1968, the hand-painted 1967 Flying V is a mythical instrument, meticulously recreated by Gibson's Custom Shop with materials that reproduce the same depth and texture as Jimi's original. But this is a Gibson Custom guitar, so the materials and hardware are faithful reproductions of the original, ensuring an instrument with unsurpassed playability and classic tone.

The custom paint job on his Flying V is often described as a "psychedelic flower" design, or the "Love Drops" design. The guitar's vivid colors and bold patterns reflect both the psychedelic era of the late 1960s and Hendrix's own unique style.

Aside from its striking appearance, the guitar is also notable for its sound. With a mahogany body and neck, a rosewood fretboard, and two humbucking pickups the rest of the ‘unique Hendrix sound’ came as he flipped the guitar upside down and restrung it giving it power and attack not seen in any other guitar models of the era.

Hendrix used the guitar extensively during his performances from 1967 to 1969, especially during his concerts in Europe. After his death, the guitar went through various hands before being sold at auction. It is considered one of the most valuable pieces of rock and roll memorabilia.

This model is an accurate hand painted replica of Hendrix's 1967 Flying V, produced by Gibson, which captures the spirit and look of the original. Premium build and vintage electronic components ensure that the tone of the guitar also faithfully recreates that iconic groundbreaking sound that Hendrix captured and will be treasured forever, along with such memorable designs as this.

With its intricate swirls of color and iconic Flying V design, this guitar is a true work of art. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of rock history and add some Jimi Hendrix magic to your collection.

Last and not least this is part of a very limited run and sports the serial number 007 - doesn’t get more collectible than that!
