Re: Gibson Flying V

Michael Burks had a contest with the release of his last CD. Our own Bob (tarus52) won it and has been gathering autographs on it ever since. The thing's a monster!!! The case for it is huge!! But, man o man, the TONE!      Cathy

Re: Gibson Flying V

If you have Joes 2006 calender he had a V just like that if not that one in it.

Warren, you stole MY story and you know that .... lol

I know who WON`T get any German Gummibears tomorrow wink ... just kidding, the guitar is more than cool and it ROCKS - I´ve got video proof, but that will have to wait until I´m back home next weekend. Can you say "Just got paid - THE Rockstar-performance"?! wink

Re: Gibson Flying V

Yes, he's cut his hair, lost some more weight and transformed himself into a lean, mean, Flying V playing guitar machine. big_smile

Seriously, wait till some clips get posted of Joe actually playing the beast, he's like a kid at Christmas with it, very clearly enjoying every second it's in his hands. Here are a few humble offerings from my ancient camera.

Because he only found it and bought it in Hamburg, that's why.

Wait until Sunday. I´ve got the "premier" video of Joe playing it in Hamburg only a few hours after he had bought it. It´s heavy metal. lol

Re: Gibson Flying V

Hi there!
First:
that's
http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Divisions/G … ngV/specs/
a crazy guitar!

Secondly:
Joe bought his new Flying V in the afternoon, few hours before the show at No1, Hamburg's special guitar store. I was there today and found the guitar linked on the top.
But didn't like the new Just Got Paid Solo on the Flying V - compared with the solo of e.g. FNIP and other versions he played.

Third and Last:
Think his new haircut is toooo short. wink
