This 2001 Gibson Gothic Flying V is a bold, no-compromise instrument designed for players who want their tone as dark and aggressive as their aesthetic. Part of Gibsons limited-run Gothic Series, this Flying V features a sleek satin ebony finish, minimalist black hardware, and a striking moon-and-star inlay at the 12th fret a look that’s as menacing as the sound it delivers. Built for power and sustain, the solid mahogany body and set mahogany neck provide a resonant tonal foundation, while the dual Gibson 490R and 498T humbuckers pump out everything from thick, growling lows to searing highs perfect for heavy rock, metal, and anything in between. The slim ’60s-style neck profile offers fast, comfortable playability, and the iconic Flying V shape ensures effortless upper fret access and undeniable stage presence. Whether you’re unleashing riffs under stage lights or laying down tracks in the studio, the 2001 Gothic Flying V offers a perfect blend of aggressive tone, smooth playability, and dark visual attitude. A true cult classic in the Gibson lineup, it’s a must-have for players who want to stand out both sonically and visually.
