Arrived this afternoon...review to follow tomorrow by editing this post with better oics too.
First impression after going over with a fine toothed comb...Needs the "personal setup" with new strings and Oiling up of the fretboard as expected but other than that...
STUNNINGLY FLAWLESS!
Firefly Explorer and Pegasus models arriving tomorrow.
YOWZA!

Now that you have it, what is the scale length?
I watched the video, I dont think he mentions it.

Awesome...sold mine. As a sit down player, the input jack was annoying. Kept my Explorer though.

They included a Right Angle cable in my packaging and neither I nor he thought it was that uncomfortable when using it sitting down.
Sorry to hear you didn't like it. Good guitars at ridiculous prices. Reminds me of the early Rondo days.

Gibson scale is the right answer!
Man, I am wrangling to buy a Well-Hung strap and this came up....

The V GAS has been with me for at least a year; maybe 2.
I ordered the Honeyburst.
I would have preferred the string through but the TOM is fine.

I didnt watch the video from Wed until just now.
Hope the guy is honest and hope I get a good one quality control wise.

I grabbed a Explorer, SG and Red Bat along with the V. Maybe some buyers remorse/guilt thrown in with the cable issue. I do regret a bit selling.

Survived shipping!
Went over it briefly, looks good with some typical budget guitar low points.
Will post NGD review thread.

Thanks for the review. I felt the stirrings of GAS
I can't believe this. I have checked that Damn site 15 times and they have never showed a v in stock. Not eve an out of stock placeholder and now here they are.
So I went back to the main menu and sure enough, the flying Vs are on a secret page . They have no link. Did they mean to do that? Any other secret pages? DC lp jr in stock?
I'm tempted. I was looking for a green tint guitar and it's on sale but I just don't like that green so much.
The sunburst is nice. The honey is too but I have those colors. I gotta say I've always wanted an ocean burst and that blue is very nice. I hate that it's 50% more but if it's a good playing guitar it's still a good deal. The LAST thing I need is another guitar. I'm not even playing electric currently. Haven't in months but I know I'll get back to it. I have no more room. Don't need it in the least but here i am with a loaded shopping cart.

Here is the Honeyburst I ordered yesterday:

Very tempted by that one. I think the red wash led me away from that model and to the oceanburst.
