Gibson Flying V Custom
Aftermarket Price History
Used-market sales only. Brand New listings excluded.
The Flying V Custom is Gibson applying prestige treatment to a shape that already makes a statement before you touch it. That only works when the finish, binding and hardware feel deliberate enough to support the idea. If the guitar loses visual crispness, the whole point of the Custom version weakens faster than it would on a Les Paul.
Individual Listings (Used Market)
Used-condition sales and current used listings. Brand New listings excluded.
Market Report
Used examples typically trade between $3,950 and $7,775; anything under $3,950 is worth a close look. Prices are up +25.4% vs. 12 months ago. Some price variation month to month, but within a normal range.
This is a slow-moving market at ~5/month. Sellers may wait longer for the right buyer; don't expect a quick flip.
Condition has a moderate effect on price (~23% spread from clean to worn). Player-grade examples represent reasonable value.
