NGD: Edwards 70's Flying V

Post by dayl »

A little late with this one.

Thanks heaps to Greenbastard for hooking me up with this beauty. It's my first V and I really dig it.

It's a MIJ Edwards from the people behind ESP. I was really keen to put EMG in it as a Hetfield type buzz but man when I got it, I wanted something more.

Enter the BKP Miracle Man set. Quite possibly the best neck pickup I've ever had the joy of playing. Bridge does the job nicely also.

Very happy overall. Feels great in my hands.

That’s awesome, love them in white. I had a late 90’s Gibson one a couple of decades ago, man I should not have sold that one!

Congrats anyway, what a superb looking V
