Nothing stirs up musical nostalgia like the sight of a Flying V. This Greco FV-600 has it all...visual appeal and sonic presence. This is one guitar you are surely not going to want to put down. The guitar is a clone of a 1964-67 Gibson Flying V in many regards. From the angle and size of the headstock to the sweetly resonant and warm sounding mahogany body in an aged white finish,  paired with the chocolate brown, rosewood fingerboard is the perfect combination for simplistic, yet eye catching, stage appeal. The neck is a one piece Maple with set neck design. Produced in 1978, this bad-ass V has an extremely cool, natural relic that is full of MOJO vibe. For being just shy of 46, this girl is still in her prime, playing condition wise... There are tons of dings, dents, scuffs and fine surface scratches, but nothing takes away from the natural vintage appeal radiating from this guitar (please see pictures). All of which are just a reminder of good times had playing this V. This is a phenomenal looking and sounding Gibson Killer just waiting for a player to take her on some sweet musical adventures.

It has been professionally set up for optimal tone and playability. The PAF Style humbucking Pickups are extremely well balanced and radiate with a creamy and sonically pleasing tone that can handle just about anything genre wise that you can throw her way. When you roll back the volume the it cleans up extremely well, and when driven or pushed through a nice tube amp... it delivers some bone crunching metal tones that are just as killer as this pretty girl looks. Don't miss out on this incredible, MOJO infused Flying V made by some of the best luthiers Japan had at the time. Wether you rock out at home, gig out or own a studio this thing will blow you away and make everyone who sees her envious.

- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.

Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy 

We follow Reverb’s 7-day return policy. However:  

- You must notify us in writing within 3 days of delivery (per tracking) of your intent to return.  

- Original shipping and return shipping costs are not refunded unless the guitar is damaged in transit or is significantly not as described.  

A 15% restocking fee applies to all returns for any reason other than damage in transit or significantly not as described.  


We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.  


Minor adjustments and tweaks to a set up (for example to correct a slight buzz or truss-rod tweak) are normal after shipping due to carrier mishandling the package, climate & atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments. These slight issues do not constitute “significantly not as described.” Guitars must be returned in the exact same condition as received/advertised or additional repair/restocking fees will apply.  


We are a small business, not a big-chain retailer. We invest significant time and effort into every guitar. This is a NO TIRE-KICKING shop. There is no post purchase haggling or partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy. Plenty of large retailers offer free trials and can absorb shipping costs—we do not.

- All items can be shipped internationally. Buyer is fully responsible for all import duties, taxes, and customs fees.  

- We accept PayPal, PayPal Credit, Affirm, and other major payment methods.  

- Most U.S. shipments are sent via UPS or FedEx with full insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation. All packages are professionally packed for maximum protection.
