SickTangerine Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Hey all I just needed to get this out of my skin, but am I the only one that thinks Flying V's look amazingly rediculous? For some reason I can't take them seriously, they just look so odd Quote
Hickory Man Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 They've always looked like Gibson was going for a futuristic look with the Flying V, but ridiculous? Nah! Quote
badgeholder Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Have you seen the guy in the Black-Eyed Peas, his is backwards, like an arrow Quote
Joao Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Have you seen the guy in the Black-Eyed Peas, his is backwards, like an arrow Now that is ridiculous. Quote
danelectro59 Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I think they look great! i agree and not only do they look great they sound good too. Listen to Kim Simmonds of Savoy Brown on the album Blue Matter and tell me you don't agree. Quote
Starbreaker Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I agree, I love the look of a V. If I get enough money, I plan on getting one. Quote
BonzoLikeDrumer Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 They've always looked like Gibson was going for a futuristic look with the Flying V, but ridiculous? Nah! Sorry dude but Randy never played a Gibson "V". That is a Jackson guitar, they do look some what alike until, you look at the headstock. Quote
JRomero Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Listen to Kim Simmonds of Savoy Brown on the album Blue Matter and tell me you don't agree. Amen to that, my friend! Quote
Starbreaker Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 I know that this thread is about Gibson V's, but IMO, the Jackson Randy Rhoads V is also pretty sweet. Quote
danelectro59 Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 I know that this thread is about Gibson V's, but IMO, the Jackson Randy Rhoads V is also pretty sweet. Randy Rhoads could've made a cheap plastic guitar sound good. Quote
Starbreaker Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Randy Rhoads could've made a cheap plastic guitar sound good. Are you not a fan of the tone of the Jackson Randy Rhoads V? Quote
danelectro59 Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Are you not a fan of the tone of the Jackson Randy Rhoads V? i'm a fan of Randy Rhoads mastery of the guitar. as far as what guitar he used, no. Quote
Starbreaker Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 i'm a fan of Randy Rhoads mastery of the guitar. as far as what guitar he used, no. If I may ask, what about that particular guitar do you not like? Quote
Page-ist Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Have you seen the guy in the Black-Eyed Peas, his is backwards, like an arrow Ah, yes! The ol' inverted model. Quote
danelectro59 Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 If I may ask, what about that particular guitar do you not like? i don't know where you're going with this, but it's just not the guitar. there are so many variances in setting up a sound and you could spend 2 lifetimes trying to perfect and still wind up scratching your ass and saying wtf over and over. i will say that i was in a group where the guitarist had that particular model and it wasn't the best sound i've ever heard. now is saying that, it could've have been a myriad of things, mostly his set-up, which being a drummer i have enough sound problems of my own. i will also say that the current guitarist i'm working with uses, among many, a Steve Vai JEM Ibanez that in my opinion blows the Jackson out of the water. again it could be how well he dials it in. you may get it and throw it out the window Quote
