A Real Bargain for a Real Gibson!
When you consider the expanded Melody Maker lineup from Gibson, it's easy to see that Gibson's tradition of providing great, affordable guitars is still very much alive today. Although the 2011 Melody Maker line is a limited run (and you DON'T want to miss out on this) these guitars are priced so that any guitarist can pick one up. The Gibson Flying V Melody Maker brings the post-modern vibe of the late '50s/early '60s to the iconic Melody Maker simplicity. Its thin and light body makes the Flying V Melody Maker an incredibly comfortable guitar to play, and its 1-piece set mahogany neck gives you the rock-solid sustain you need.
Unlike the single-coil pickups found on Melody Makers in the past, the Flying V Melody Maker features a 491T ceramic-magnet humbucker controlled by only a simple volume knob. This simple configuration gives you the purest tone possible, plus the outstanding punch of a humbucker. Simply put, the Flying V Melody Maker is an instrument made for a true guitar-lover.
