Epiphone Jimi Hendrix "Love Drops" Flying V Ebony Set

Epiphone Jimi Hendrix "Love Drops" Flying V Signature Electric Guitar in Ebony, Includes Case!

Jimi Hendrix is widely regarded as the most innovative guitarist of the rock era, a musician who took the instrument to places no one had ventured before. Now Epiphone is proud to introduce, in collaboration with Gibson Custom and the Hendrix family, the Jimi Hendrix "Love Drops" Flying V — an Inspired by Gibson Custom reproduction of a guitar Jimi played extensively from 1967 to 1969.

Originally a sunburst, Jimi Hendrix customized his ebony-refinished Gibson Flying V with psychedelic artwork he hand-painted, which has been recreated here. The Jimi Hendrix "Love Drops" Flying V also features a mahogany body, a one-piece mahogany neck with a rounded C profile, a laurel fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets. An "Inspired by Gibson Custom" logo and a reproduction of Jimi's signature adorn the back of the Flying V headstock in the 1967 style.

Epiphone Deluxe tuners secure the strings at the headstock while a short Maestro vibrola anchors them at the other end. The electronics are top-quality, featuring a pair of Gibson Custombucker humbuckers wired to CTS pots, a Mallory tone capacitor, a Switchcraft 3-way pickup selector switch, and a 1/4" output jack. An Epiphone hard shell case with "Inspired by Gibson Custom" and "Authentic Hendrix" logos is also included.
