Jimi Hendrix changed the course of music history, and his custom-painted Flying V was a key part of that journey. Now, thanks to Epiphone, Gibson Custom, and the Hendrix family, you can own a stunning recreation of this legendary instrument. Originally a Sunburst model, Hendrix personally transformed it with vibrant psychedelic artwork and used it extensively from 1967 to 1969. This Inspired by Gibson Custom edition faithfully brings that one-of-a-kind guitar back to life for modern players and collectors.

Built for tone and playability, the mahogany body and one-piece mahogany neck provide warmth and sustain, while the rounded C profile ensures a comfortable grip. The 22-fret laurel fingerboard delivers smooth playability, and details like the Inspired by Gibson Custom logo and Jimi’s signature on the back of the headstock make this a true tribute piece. For added performance, Epiphone Deluxe tuners ensure tuning stability, while the short Maestro™ Vibrola™ tailpiece offers expressive vibrato.

Under the hood, this guitar is wired for authentic vintage tone. Dual Gibson Custombucker humbuckers™ capture the dynamic, articulate sound that defined Hendrix’s legendary performances. High-quality CTS® potentiometers, a Mallory™ tone capacitor, and a Switchcraft® 3-way selector switch provide a professional-grade signal path.

To complete the package, this collector’s instrument comes in a custom Epiphone hardshell case, featuring gold Authentic Hendrix™ and Inspired by Gibson Custom logos. A true piece of rock history, available now at Haggerty’s Music!
