What is your favorite V shaped guitar?

[Smash]

I love my Jackson Custom V, but I also had a KXK that was badass. What is your favorite builder for V's?

I like my Schecters, but I had to enlist a custom builder to get exactly what I wanted. '58 body style, 1.75" thick, flamed maple top over Honduras mahogany, 25.5" scale, jumbo stainless frets, no inlays, etc.

I like rear loaded V’s. 84 Gibson V / Dean USA.

@JF Scarfi
Is that an oversized 4x12 cab that's holding the Marshalls?

Old road case I’ve had for 30 years.

Gibson V is king in my eyes.

Now that's a setup I can get behind.

Beautiful. Who made it? I can’t make out the logo. I may have asked this before lol

Do guitars come in any other shape?!

Is that one on the left korina? Fucking gorgeous. I play my les paul sometimes, but V is definitely the only shape I need.

Two Korina, one mahogany Shannon masterbuilt and the Bob Rock Blackened King V ordered for Hetfield. The last custom is a single hum w/ofr.

I will eventually get a Gibson too but I love my Dean!

for me it is the Rhoads
and I am in the middle of making a copy of the GJ2 concorde body. Well I am actually finished but because we are in lockdown I can't get any paint to do the finish. It has a Jackson style neck and will have a ceruse finish top .. (this is just a rough practice one that will be sanded off and i'll redo it "right" in black base and yellow grain)
