  Gibson Flying V - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gibson Flying V is a popular electric guitar first released in 1958 by Gibson.
This Flying V, along with the Explorer and, initially, the Moderne, made up a line of modernist guitars designed by then-president Ted McCarty.
In 1981, Gibson produced a four-string bass version of the Flying V. Only 375 were produced, most of them fl but a few in alpine white, silverburst, or transparent blue.

 Flying V - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Flying V is an unusually shaped, solid body electric guitar that was initially produced in small numbers by Gibson in the late 1950s and again (with minor differences) from 1966 to the early 1970s before entering full production from the mid-1970s onwards.
The body of the guitar is shaped like an inverted letter V. The model gained some popularity in the 1960s partly due to the usage of the Gibson Flying V by famous electric guitarist Jimi Hendrix.
However, the Flying V is not a guitar which is meant to be played sitting down, and is in fact very difficult to play in the normal position (body resting on right leg) when sitting.
