For sale is this super rare Orville Flying V. These were made in Japan under Gibson and only sold there. They are super nice quality, better than the real thing ! Very accurate, thin 1.3" body, fairly slim neck, very light weight [under 6.5 lbs.] The mid 70's V's are now in the $4K range so this is a great subsitute. Come with a hardshell trapazoid case. Thank you !

|
| You might want to confirm that 1974 date. Orville by Gibson wasn't launched until 1988. |

| The '74 is the model designation used by Orville, meaning a reissue of the 1974 Gibson model. This guitar was made in the mid 90's. |

I lived inn Japan for 5 years and played a bunch of killer Orvilles. If I wasn't so poor I'd scoop this right up.

How awesome would it be to play this on a Western Swing gig? I'm totally serious. Nice guitar.

It would be awesome and completely suitable. I really do wish I had the spare cash.
