I love that V as well !!Yes this is the faded V. I put a Distortion TB6 in it and it is amazing, I pick it up more than any of my other guitars, is super comfortable, sounds as good or better than all of my others. I would sell my custom Dean before I'd sell this one off.
My Dean is amazing too... Sometimes it's a very close contest between them. I mean they're so similar. Gibson has smaller frets and more ...I dunno... "Organic" feel to it? I think it's my go to guitar for all things "not drop tuned brutal"
And I am jonesing for another one.. just got to put funds together for it.
Cheers
