Mustaine left Dean and went to Gibson/Epiphone/Kramer

So when is the new guitar going to be revealed?

Probably just waiting for the Evertune trem.

Im almost 100% its a Kramer.

We had confirmation yet?
I think that brand suits him way more than Dean anyway personally. I associate Kramer from an era when he was really in his prime. Perfect business marriage

So when is the new guitar going to be revealed?

Maybe around the 21st of Jan? (NAMM)

 

[Crumbling]

Yep, 100% Kramer. The only thing going against it was Jackson hyping up dealers about 2021 being something special, but that ended up being the MJ series and all the new premium finishes.

 

[manu80]

to me it that looks like going to a brand because well no other is interested in you anymore ...And even if it's Gibson related well....not the same impact as an ESP, Jackson or even Dean. Kramer got history but is it really relevant those days ?

Money > Name. Give him a big enough paycheck and build him what he wants and he'll shill for you, that's how Mustaine works

 

[OmegaSlayer]

can't see your pic Omegaslayer. Is that a tease of the guitar? We will never know..

LMAO
I posted something like this

Regarding Mustaine Signaure Vs, here is what we've seen so far (1990-2020) - if anyone is interested!

 

[JimF]

For some reason I'm seeing the black line as the Jackson King V? The points look familiar to mine.
I wonder if the rounded V is the Y2KV or the new Gibson V?...
If it means Gibson are making a 25.5" scale V that could be tempting!

 

[VMNT]

That's right! King V - Black, VMNT - Green, Y2KV - Blue, DV8 - Red

 

[JimF]

I misunderstood, I thought you'd meant Gibson had released that photo as a teaser!
I'm with you now.

 

[lewis]

on V's
Why the hell dont we ever get Epi Flying Vs that are 25.5, 24 frets etc? (hell Baritone would be even better)

I would probably impulse buy something like this, right now -

Easily the best looking flying V ever for my tastes.
Absolutely perfect

probably only thing I would prefer is blank ebony fretboard

Looks like a robb flynn replica

It is a Flynn guitar from an extremely rare, limited run Epi did in like 2009 or something before his "love death" model existed. Guy scored it hanging for cheap in a guitar center. Rightfully snapped it up.
Its 27inch scale

its so rare, other than this dude posting about it, you cant find anything else about it online

EDIT for more pics -

A 24 fret, 25.5 inch Gibson Flying V in quicksilver and with a 70s headstock as the new signature guitar for Dave Mustaine would be cool.

I would happily grab a silver <3

I could easily plastidip it too should I want a colour change that isnt permanent and doesnt do anything to the stock finish other than cover and protect it.
I need that pickguard though haha

Agree on the pickguard. Gibson Flying Vs without it looks weird.

 

[VMNT]

Mustaine Flying V with the '58 pickguard would be interesting, but still, I'd much rather see the Y2KV back for sure! Are we certain he's not going back to Jackson? Just look at that thing
