So much so that while it may seem hard to believe today, only 81 were shipped that year. However, the Flying V’s popularity has grown exponentially in the years since then, due in no small part to the many guitar heroes who have embraced the model, including Albert King, Keith Richards, Slash, Joe Bonamassa, Lonnie Mack, Albert King, Dave Davies of The Kinks, and Billy Gibbons, just to name a few.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version of the 1958 Flying V uses mahogany instead of the original Korina wood for the neck and body, but otherwise, all of the classic vintage Flying V features have been carefully recreated in this Historic Reissue model. Mahogany delivers a somewhat warmer sound than the slightly brighter Korina, making it a great choice for players who love the 1950s Flying V aesthetic but who are looking for a denser, all-mahogany tone for rock and metal. And since mahogany is more readily available than the scarcer Korina, this also makes this 1958 Mahogany Flying V Reissue the most accessible way to get Historic Flying V looks, features, and performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing an ABR-1 bridge with a lacquered brass chevron and a string-through mahogany body, unpotted Custombucker pickups with Alnico 3 magnets, a hide glue-fitted mahogany neck with a 50s Rounded Medium C profile and topped with an Indian rosewood fretboard that is equipped with 22 reissue frets and adorned with pearloid dot inlays, two volume and one tone control with CTS® potentiometers and a phone book capacitor, VOS nitrocellulose lacquer finish and aged gold hardware, Kluson® single ring tuners, and a 4-ply white pickguard. A historically accurate case is also included, with a classic brown exterior and plush pink interior to keep this beautiful guitar safe when you’re traveling to your next gig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerial #: 86255\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel: 58MVANVOGH1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBody Finish: Nitrocellulose VOS (Vintage Patina)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Material: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Shape: Flying V\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Styles: Flying V\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRim Material: Rubber Strip On Bottom Rim\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight Relief: None\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Material: Indian Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Radius: 304.8mm \/ 12.0in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFret Count: 22\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrets: Reissue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInlays: Pearloid Dot\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJoint: Hide Glue Fit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut Material: Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut Width: 42.86mm \/ 1.69in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProfile: 50s Rounded Medium C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale Length: 628.65mm \/ 24.75in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge Pickup: Custombucker Alnico 3 (Unpotted)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 1 Tone, 500K CTS Vintage Taper Potentiometers, Phone Book Capacitor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Pickup: Custombucker Alnico 3 (Unpotted)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutput Jack: 1\/4\" Switchcraft\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickup Selector: Switchcraft 3-Way Toggle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge: ABR-1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eControl Knobs: True Historic Black Top Hat With Dial Pointer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFinish: Aged Gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJack Plate Cover: ’58 Flying V White 4-Ply\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMounting Rings: True Historic Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickguard: '58 Flying V White 4-Ply\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickup Covers: True Historic Aged Gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStrap Buttons: 2 -
