The Gibson Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP in Silver Metallic is an aggressive, ultra-precise tone machine built to the exact specifications of the legendary Megadeth frontman. Designed to deliver bone-crushing thrash riffs and blistering leads, this high-performance Flying V combines classic Gibson luthiery with modern extended scale length and custom active-style passive electronics.

The guitar is crafted around a lightweight, resonant mahogany body finished in a brilliant Silver Metallic nitrocellulose lacquer. Its set mahogany neck features a fast SlimTaper profile equipped with a reinforced volute for maximum durability during intense touring. Topped with a dark ebony fingerboard, it boasts 24 frets, striking Mother of Pearl Teeth inlays, a Graph Tech nut, and an extended 25.5" scale length that provides tight string tension and razor-sharp dynamic response for low tunings and high-speed rhythm playing.

Sonically, the Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP is armed with a signature set of Seymour Duncan Thrash Factor humbuckers. Custom-voiced to recreate the iconic tone of Mustaine's altered JB bridge pickup used on classic albums like Rust in Peace, these pickups offer tight low-end, scooped mids, and aggressive high-end bite. The controls feature custom Dave Mustaine wiring with independent volume controls for each pickup, a master tone, and a 3-way toggle switch.

The hardware package comes in sleek Black Chrome, anchored by a classic Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece for exceptional sustain and precise intonation. Backed by Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners with kidney buttons and black witch hat knobs, this Flying V stands ready for stage dominance.

Condition: This is a used Gibson Dave Mustaine Flying V EXP in Silver Metallic in good condition. There are a handful of things to note, but all are cosmetic. First, there a couple of small finish cracks on the bass side of the fretboard near the nut. Secondly, the finish work along side the binding isn't clean. Nothing that impedes your play, but looking at the binding work, you can see it's not a clean job. Third, there's a slight finish imperfections on the side of the neck. Finally, there are a good amount of surface marks/scratches on the face of the headstock. All of these items are photographed. All of these items are cosmetic.
