I'll be interested to see how you like the position of the knobs.

Yeah I noticed that too. Maybe I finally get to try a Jeff Beck impression sans Trem.

No one has noticed that the guitar I bought has "String Thru" with Cream Pups and Rings whereas the video review shows a Zebra Pups, Black Rings and a "Stop" Tailpiece. :)

I noticed that! Well, mostly the tailpiece thing. IMO, part of what sets a Flying V apart is the lack of tailpiece; they're just not quite the same with a stop tailpiece.

273? They build a hollowbody for less than 200. I was figuring I could get a ff v for about 159.

The $273 was SHIPPED from California to Florida. Axe goes for $249, $239 after discount applied in your Cart.

Newer Frets and better Pups from what reviews I've seen on YT than first runs they did.

They have a Walnut "V" for a hair under $200 plus shipping but no discount.
