This extremely limited Gibson Tom Petty Flying V 50th Anniversary is finished in Gainesville Gold, with only 50 examples produced in this colorway worldwide. The limited run sold out immediately, making this a special release celebrating 50 years of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
This guitar is in mint condition, removed from the box only for testing and photography. The electronics work as expected and sound great. Includes the original Gibson hardshell case.
Inspired by the iconic logo featured on Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ 1976 self-titled debut album, this Flying V combines unmistakable Gibson styling with distinctive anniversary details. The mahogany body is paired with a comfortable SlimTaper mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard featuring acrylic dot inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets.
A pair of Gibson ’70s Tribute humbuckers delivers a versatile range of tones, from clear, articulate cleans to powerful rock sounds. Individual volume controls, a master tone control with an Orange Drop capacitor, and a three-way toggle provide straightforward tonal flexibility.
Gold-plated hardware gives this Gainesville Gold example a striking appearance, complemented by a three-ply white pickguard, gold Top Hat knobs, and a cream toggle switch cap. Additional commemorative details include a Heartbreaker 50th Anniversary truss rod cover, a Tom Petty signature reproduction decal on the back of the headstock, and a mother-of-pearl Gibson headstock logo.
