EPIPHONE FLYING V ELECTRIC GUITAR EBONY

EPIPHONE EIFVEBNH DETAILS

Inspired by the futuristic classic, the Epiphone EIFVEBNH Flying V boasts the same radical angular styling and full-throttle tone as its predecessor.

Even before you plug it in, this solidbody electric guitar packs amazing sustain and midrange punch, thanks to its resonant mahogany body. Wrap your hand around the Flying V’s comfortable SlimTaper C-shaped neck, and you’ll appreciate how effortlessly you can tear up and down its easy-playing Indian laurel fingerboard. You’ll love how this axe sounds when you plug it into a British-style stack — it’s as arena-ready as a guitar tone can be. Epiphone Vintage Deluxe 18:1-ratio tuners and a LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge and string-thru tailpiece round out the Epiphone Flying V’s impressive features.

A classic V through and through
The Epiphone Flying V is a classic V through and through. Fans of this iconic design will love the rich midrange character and sustain gotten from its mahogany body. Its set mahogany neck feels great in your hand, thanks to its comfortable SlimTaper C profile, with cutaways on both sides for unfettered fret access. It comes topped with an easy-playing Indian laurel fingerboard that’s sure to inspire. Its symmetrical headstock makes a perfect platform for a set of Epiphone Vintage Deluxe 18:1-ratio tuners. A LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge and string-thru tailpiece complete the package.

ProBucker™ humbucker Pickups-The classic «P.A.F» sound is closer than you think
Epiphone’s ProBucker™ humbucker has quietly become one of the most talked about pickups in the industry. It has fooled experts, vintage purists, and even luthiers who have worked with the best vintage examples from the late 50s and early 60s. Epiphone ProBucker™ humbuckers are the real deal—made with 18% Nickel Silver unit bases and covers, the same alloy used by Gibson at the Kalamazoo factory when the humbucker was first invented. The use of Nickel Silver reduces the occurrence of eddy currents due to low conductivity and provides a more transparent and crisp output. The size and shape of the bobbins also has a great impact on tonal response. And the bobbins used on ProBucker™ pickups duplicate the size and shape of the gold standard in the industry, Gibson humbuckers. Epiphone ProBucker™ pickups also feature sand cast Alnico II magnets, high quality 4 conductor lead wire, and are vacuum wax potted to eliminate microphonics.
