Guitar of the month for January 2009. Limited run of 1,000.
Overview
The Gibson Holy V Electric Guitar blends an innovative design with efficiency to make an absolutely must have guitar. The traditional features of the Flying V are apparent in the new Holy V including the mahogany V-shaped body, pointed headstock, and hybrid neck profile are all true to the original's design. Carefully carved vented openings in both the neck and headstock are a testament to Gibson's creative genius, giving the new Holy V a new, more intense look and character, while ending up as one of Gibson's lightest production guitars to date.
The Holy V's neck, topped by an ebony fingerboard with split diamond inlays and single-ply binding, carries two additional frets, preserving the Flying V's traditional 24-inch scale length while delivering an even higher register of notes to a guitar already famous for its exceptional lead-playing ability.
The Holy V sports a single '57 classic pickup in the bridge position, supplying that classic Gibson PAF crunch and power. Other Holy V features include Steinberger gearless tuners for smooth tuning action and accuracy, and a custom Guitar of the Month case from Gibson USA. Like all Gibson USA's Guitar of the Month models, production is limited to just 1,000 guitars.
