    How about a Gibson Moderne? The templates are available. I just don't have the skills to do a neck and without the gumby headstock it's not the same.

    I love all the oddities. Sweptwings, Vox Phantoms and teardrops etc. Flying V is next on my hit list in fact.

    Hmmmm, I am a fan of some of the futuristic Gibbo's but this is not one of them. Same goes for the reverse Explorer which is top of the ugliest in my opinion whilst the reverse V was just plain dumb.

    Explains why the Moderne's are virtually extinct or museum artefacts however some of the more modern day V's do have the similar offset one long, one short rear tail setup and was never a fan of them either.
