i want to get a flying-v after my exams, and i wanna know what you guys thought when you bought your first flying v. Like for example: happy? needed adjusting? should've gotten an SG instead?
 
if i got my first flying v id be the happiest kid.but it must be made of mahogany and set neck la.
 
i was craving for one. and still yet to get it. having a tight budget currently.
got a schecter damien with EMGhz and FR instead.
well , i'd still continue craving for one.
sometimes i need it real bad. =x
 
the V is the least appealing shape to me because it is really cumbersome when played sitting down. however, i value the playability & tone of a guitar more than its outline, so i got this for myself:

if the goth flying v from epiphone is still available, then ill get that one. if not ill look for maybe esp ltd
 
meh i dont want copies, i want the real thing, so because im not rich i get the cheap ones, BUT REAL. SG's and Les Pauls are for epiphone and Gibson. "metal" guitars are for Esp and LTD...

if i want a certain shape I go to the "original" manufacturer, hence if I want an SG i buy an epiphone or Gibson SG, not some ESP guitar that looks like an SG
 
it MAY be a problem if you practise sitting down....but i got used to it, but it definately won't be as comfy as a strat....


but i do feel more "free" when playing my RR while standing.....i guess since there's less body i feel like moving around more..
 
Hahaha... dean flying v... my friend (who doesn't play the guitar) got all excited seeing it too... "You buying that?!"...

Dunno the fascinations about the V though... If Ibanez has a V copy, with Wizard neck, set bridge, dual emg active pups, HELL YEAH!!!
 
ah... the more outgoing shapes are certainly the pallette of BC Rich & ESP. as for guitars in general, if one deems a certain guitar good for the applications, then it's game.

single coils certainly aren't the preferred units for all-out gain/ drive; the reason i have a humbucker (bridge) in my tele.
 
OMG!!! IBANEZ DOES HAVE A FLYING V WITH FIXED BRIDGE AND WIZARD NECK!!! Check soft reviews section... URHGZ!!!
