So some of you may recall that I posted about pre-ordering a Brendon Small Snow Falcon Flying V. It was just so cool looking in that
all white glory I had to have it...well the months of waiting got to me and I cancelled it!

Last week I noticed they were in stock and ready to ship from Sam Ash...not my normal go to store. But the GAS got me again
and I ordered one. The little picture book is actually hand signed and not a photo copy! Nice touch!

Well here she is...

Wow, I've never seen one of those. Really really cool looking. Looks like it's a player for sure. Great color. Yup, The signature is a nice touch too.
Enjoy!
 
I just got 15 minutes of play time in on it. Placing the V cut on my right leg seems to keep the guitar stable without a strap.
Since I play mostly sitting down I need to be comfortable that way. The guitar sounds fantastic and it's set up well right out
of the box. I like the coil tap, but don't think I'll ever use the kill switch...I would like to have an out of phase switch instead...
 
He is the co-creator of a cartoon on Adult Swim called Metalocalypse.

From Wiki

"The show can be seen as both a parody and celebration of heavy metal culture. The music, written by guitarist/creator Brendon Small, is credited to the band and featured in most episodes. The animation is often carefully synced to the music with the chord positions and fingering of the guitar parts shown in some detail."

 
Sp8, I have always found I prefer a strap on any guitar even while playing seated.
For the standing method of V playing, I refer you to someone who seldom has an issue how to hold his.


i LOVE HOW THE WORDS ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN THE NORMAL VERSION i HAVE HEARD.
 
I have been thinking about a Vee lately and this post really made me think about it more. I looked at them on line (Sweetwater) and when I stopped in at Sweetwater, I came very close.........

But alas... I had to go with the more immediate need of my stage sound and ended up getting the Vox AC10 amp. Oh well... maybe next time. :facepalm:

I'm not much of a v fan but I must admit that is a stunning eye catcher. Looks like a guitar that should be played by an angel
