1982 Gibson Heritage Flying V – Korina
Heritage Korina Flying V from 1982. This one lost its original case, now resides in an aftermarket one. The Tim Shaw pickups are original, the switch and output jack are not. At some point the instrument was modified with a rout for a 9v battery under the pickguard, which is thankfully invisible in the assembled instrument. Weighs a featherweight 6lb and 10oz. Setup on 10s. Definitely for the few.
Condition is 8/10
Condition
Very good condition. A few light impressions, checking, one or two small dings, light hazing, checking etc. Not new, not pristine. Presents as excellent. Lots more pictures at my site, deegearlocker dotcom, than Reverb will host; see the pictures, ask for more.
