flying v – the final chapter

IMG_9756.jpg

It’s finished. December 2020, I took delivery of a Solo Gear guitar kit – Flying V - all the parts. Like a model airplane but instead of a plane, a full-size guitar. I figured it would be fun to build with the help of my friend Kevin Gullion of The New Vintage. There were delays - COVID19; he got busy; I got busy. In recent weeks, we finally finished painting. That left assembly. Kev did the wiring. That was tough. I put on tuning pegs. That’s the easiest job. Truth be told, with all the add-ons and upgrades I probably could have bought one cheaper, but it was fun to learn, and I ended up with a cool guitar in the end.
