A meticulous recreation of Joe Bonamassa’s legendary original 1958 Gibson Flying V, the Epiphone Limited Edition "Amos" Korina Flying V pays tribute to one of the rarest electric guitars in rock history. Constructed with a solid Korina (African Limba) body and a deep-set glued-in Korina neck featuring a period-correct Rounded-C 1958 profile, it delivers vibrant resonance, quick note attack, and lightweight comfort at 7 lbs 8 oz. Outfitted with Epiphone ProBucker-2 and ProBucker-3 humbuckers wired through premium CTS potentiometers, it faithfully captures classic PAF-style bite and dynamic articulation. Vintage-accurate details include a 1958 string-thru-body gold "V" tailpiece plate, a gold-plated truss rod cover custom engraved with "Amos Arthur," 18:1 Epiphone Deluxe tulip tuners, gold hardware, a classic rosewood fingerboard, and a hardshell case.
Today's Gibson electric guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar. The models whose designs have become classics-the ES-175, ES-335, Flying V, Explorer, Firebird, SGs and Les Pauls-are a testament to Gibson's wide appeal, spanning more than four decades of music styles. Gibson's close relationship with musicians is manifest in endorsement models from King, Atkins and jazz greats Howard Roberts and Herb Ellis, plus new Les Pauls made to the personal specifications of rock stars Jimmy Page and Joe Perry. In 1994, Gibson's Centennial year, the new Nighthawk model won an industry award for design, setting the stage for a second hundred years of Gibson quality and innovation.
