Up for sale is this 2002 Gibson Flying V Faded in Faded Cherry — Left-Handed — and this is one of the rare early production examples with the crescent moon inlays on the ebony fingerboard, a feature Gibson only offered briefly before switching to a rosewood board later in the production run, making these genuinely hard to find especially in a lefty. It's loaded with the 496R and 500T humbuckers, packs a light, resonant mahogany body, and has that raw, aggressive Flying V voice that cuts through a mix like nothing else. There is a professionally repaired headstock crack that has been painted over — it is fully stable with zero impact on tuning or intonation — and outside of that the guitar is in excellent condition throughout. Full transparency on the repair is the right move, and the price should reflect it, but structurally this is a solid, playable instrument with a rare and desirable spec that lefty players don't come across often.
