history
(Taken from wiki because I'm a noob when it comes to guitars)
The Gibson Flying V is an electric guitar model introduced by Gibson in 1958. The Flying V offered a radical, "futuristic" body design, much like its siblings: the Explorer, which was released the same year and the Moderne, which was designed in 1957 but not released until 1982. The initial run of guitars used a distinctive wood of the Limba tree marketed by Gibson under the trade name "korina"; later models used more conventional woods.

What happens when you attempt to land on beast....
*may be wrong, dont remember to much of the history of metal, all I know is it started in '69 apparently.
builders note: I may or may not have forgotten about the strap knob, only one is supposed to be on the base of the body and it's on the left, oh well, just a small detail. I tried to get it as close to the real one as I could, I did mess up on the neck, I would fix it but it took me so long to get the neck details right (I'm sorry I dont know what those lines are that go across the neck), and as I said before yaw is just a big no, dont even look at it.

This does fly, try it out, its actually really cool to play around with, pitch is a tad slow.
For legal reasons the build is the one on the bottom over a runway, see I have the build in the thumbnail

GUITAR SOLO!!!!!
I did. Not on my computer, but on my mobile.
@LieutenantSOT lol, its is pretty fun I will admit, it's so majestic in air too
Never thought I'd say this... but this guitar is fun to fly lol
@DarthAbhinav and did you download it, because it's still saying zero downloads
@DarthAbhinav yea, I wanted to to be wider, but it was tall not wide, but the thumbnail I have is the one I wanted just didn't orient well
Needs a much better thumbnail, performance could use some work. Nice aesthetics and overall meme though.

@LieutenantSOT tell that to the designers at gibson lol
Really neat! This is a unique design lol
