Time Guitars Flying V

This is a Time Flying V Artist model guitar. It features a distinctive slightly offset orange painted Flying V patterned solid body and a fixed three piece laminated neck, maple with a center strip of mahogany. The asymmetrical headstock is bound in white celluloid with distinctive checkerboard purfling surrounding a rosewood headplate with the Time logo and two diamonds inlaid in mother of pearl. A two ply truss rod cover, six black mini Schaller tuners and a Floyd Rose locking nut in black round out the headstock. The fingerboard is ebony with white celluloid binding, black side dots from the first to the twenty fourth frets and diamond fretmarkers at the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth, twelfth, fifteenth, seventeenth, nineteenth, twenty-first and twenty fourth frets. The frets are the original medium size fretwire often used by Time in the 1980’s.    Paul Languedoc, who is now famous for his Languedoc guitars, recalled that he was involved in the build of this particular guitar
