They don't get much more metal than this! The Rob Flynn Flying-V from Epiphone is a baritone (27" scale length) flying V, strung with heavy strings for thunderous, authentic metal tone. As ever, Epiphone rise to the challenge of making a guitar that performs in a particular niche at an affordable price point.
The Love/Death Flying V, endorsed by Machine Head frontman and guitarist Rob Flynn, ticks all the boxes for premium low-end performance. EMG pickups, medium jumbo frets, slim taper D profile neck and resonant mahogany body provide great distortion tones, ease-of-playability and killer sustain. Combined with the unique Skull 'n' hearts artwork, the Epiphone Rob Flynn Love-Death Baritone V is the complete package for the modern heavy metal axe wielder!

Additionally, there will be in-store POP materials to further support retailers.
Epiphone Gets Heavy With the Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V
Epiphone has been a favorite of heavy metal artists for over decade not only for their great technical advances but also for their artist collaborations that have often pushed the envelope in guitar design with groundbreaking results. Now, Epiphone has done it again with the Epiphone Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V, designed in cooperation with Robb to be Epiphone's heaviest guitar (and we don't mean weight-wise) ever.
The Love/Death Baritone Story
Robb Flynn, founder, guitarist and vocalist of Machine Head, worked with Epiphone engineers to create the Epiphone Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V, the first of its kind not only for Epiphone but for the Gibson family of brands as well. Robb has won countless awards including the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award presented in 2007. And just like his music, Robb's baritone design brings a totally original sound to metal and hard rock. "The main reason for having the slightly shorter 27.0" baritone scale is when you tune down to B, it just makes the low definition really tight, especially for palm muting and chunking," remarks Flynn. "It opens up the sound a lot." The guitar comes equipped with string gauges (low to high) .58, .42, .32, unwound .18, .13, and .10 - the same that Robb uses on stage - but can also accept heavier gauges.
Original Premium Electronics
The Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V features a Mahogany body with an EMG-HA neck pickup and an EMG-81 bridge pickup. The EMG-HA neck pickup is a uniquely designed single-coil pickup inside a humbucking housing which keeps the classic look of a Flying V guitar but with something special under the hood. The EMG-HA debuted in 1974 as the first noiseless single coil pickup and features Alnico magnets for warmth and the widest possible frequency response for great definition and harmonics. It's also a perfect choice for rhythm when matched with the low tuning of a baritone guitar, providing a solid "chunking" bedrock while still showing off all the complex overtones that are part of the baritone experience. The EMG-81 bridge pickup is one of EMG's most requested pickups and utilizes powerful ceramic magnets and close aperture coils for incredible amounts of low end cut and fluid sustain. TheEMG-81, combined with the unique intervals of baritone tuning, will cut through dense mixes and make your baritone leads sound thunderous.
Other Features Include The Mahogany SlimTaper "D"-profile neck features a 27" scale with a 1.68" graphite nut for precision tuning, an Ebony fingerboard with "Love/Death" inlays and 24 medium jumbo frets. Controls are straightforward with a master volume and a 3-way toggle switch, chrome knobs, a standard 1/4" metal jack plate and Epiphone strap locks. Grover locking tuners ensure on-stage precision and like most Epiphone guitars, the bridge is our industry standard LockTone Tune-o-matic/Stopbar.
Includes Hard Case
The Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V includes a Custom Hard Case with original artwork by Robb Flynn and Strephon Taylor. The first 250 produced will also receive a hand-signed certificate. "This guitar isn't for blues players or jazz players," says Flynn, "it's a metal guitar designed specifically for young or modern metal players." And as with every Epiphone, it also comes with the peace of mind you get from a Limited Lifetime Warranty backed by Gibson Musical Instruments' famous 24/7/365 day Customer Service. Go low and get heavy with the one-of-a-kind Epiphone Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V.
