USED Gibson Custom / Historic Collection 1958 Korina Flying V Reissue VOS Natural 2023 [10]

A recently manufactured white 4-piece version of the HC1958FV Corina VOS!

The 2023 Historic Collection 1958 Corina Flying V Reissue has arrived.
The finish is a natural V.O.S. finish.
The hardware features an aged look, with simulated tarnish, peeling plating, and rust damage.
Scattered throughout the whitish grain characteristic of Corina wood are dark pigment deposits, creating an irresistible, one-of-a-kind atmosphere. Furthermore, in addition to the beauty of the wood’s color and grain pattern, the stunning sequence of grain lines makes this feel like an exceptionally rare and special instrument.

Overall Condition
・There are traces of rivets and buckles on the back of the body, but the dents are shallow and small. Compared to the aged finish, these are minor marks that give the instrument a natural and cool look.
・There are impact marks and small scratches near the tip of the headstock, as well as along the edges where the neck meets the body. Additionally, there is an impact mark and some paint peeling on the leading edge of the body end on the 6th-string side; however, this gives the guitar the feel of a genuine vintage instrument in near-mint condition, elevating its character to a truly authentic level.
・There are no issues with the pickups or controls.
・The strap buttons have been replaced with Schaller Security Locks, and the necessary repair work (filling the pilot holes) has already been completed, making them fully functional.
・The beautiful grain and figure of the Corina wood give it a special charm. This guitar has the kind of character you’d expect to see featured in a “bible” of vintage guitars or a vintage guitar collector’s calendar. Furthermore, since it was made in recent years, it’s in pristine condition.
