Gibson is proud to unveil the first guitars in the new Dave Mustaine Collection, the Gibson Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP.
For the new Flying Vs, the Gibson team collaborated with Dave Mustaine, the legendary guitarist, vocalist, songwriter, and founder of the multi-platinum selling and GRAMMY Award-winning band, Megadeth. Limited quantities of the Gibson Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP are available in Antique Natural, and Silver Metallic finishes.
The Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP Artist model delivers the powerful, heavy sound and exceptional playing performance on the stage and in the studio that he demands. The 25.5 scale mahogany neck has an ebony fretboard with a compound fretboard radius, 24 jumbo frets, mother of pearl “teeth” inlays, and an Explorer-style headstock. The mahogany Flying V-style body is equipped with a pair of Dave Mustaine’s signature Seymour Duncan Thrash Factor pickups.
