Rare Find
These don't show up often
Our users rate Reverb
Up for sale is my 1983 Ferrari Red Flying V with Khaler trem and original hardshell case in great, original condition. Pickups are original dirty fingers pickups, electronics appear to be original based on pot numbers and visuals.
The finish is in really great shape. It’s nice enough where I rarely play the guitar because I am so worried about nicking it up. It has lived a life in the case. There are a couple nicks that existed before my ownership, all pictured in the gallery: a small indentation in the upper horn, a nick on the upper horn near the strap button, and there is a small amount of missing finish on the tip of the headstock, this is common on these from headstock rubbing on the inside of the case.
- Alder body
- Maple neck
- Rosewood fretboard
- Khaler trem
- Grover tuners
- Serial: 82863514 (October 13, 1983 Nashville)
- Original dirty fingers pickups
- Original pots (bridge volume is a little scratchy when moved fast, no dead spots)
- Neck Pickup: 396883 (August 1983)
- Bridge Pickup: 4031184 (November 1984). The bridge pickup is not original to the guitar. There was an aftermarket pickup in the bridge position when I bought the guitar. I found and installed a used OG dirty fingers pickup
It sounds great and got a proper master of puppets rip before going back in the case. Let me know if you have any questions!
Due to my schedule it may take 48 hours to ship the guitar
