⚡ 1967 VintSpec Flying V Humbuckers — THE MACHINE GUN TONE ⚡
Historic Fury. Vintage Compression. Hendrix’s Most Explosive Sound.
🎸 INSPIRED BY JIMI HENDRIX’S 1967 GIBSON FLYING V
There are guitar tones. And then there’s Machine Gun — the fire and fury Hendrix unleashed during his Band of Gypsys era.
It wasn’t just fuzz and fingers.
The raw, sustaining, vocal tone of his 1967 Gibson Flying V was essential. This set brings that tone back to life.
✅ Based on a real 1967 Gibson PAT Humbucker set
✅ Exact magnet spec. Exact winding style. Exact voicing.
This isn’t a “best guess.” This is a forensic replica built from real examples—right down to the slightly underwound neck and the open, upper-mid clarity that lets your amp breathe fire or whisper soul.
🔬 CLONED FROM A LEGEND — BUILT FOR MODERN HANDS
We tore down an original 1967 PAT set, analyzed every material, and rebuilt it using the same formulas:
-
Vintage-spec Alnico magnets
-
wound for organic compression
-
Vintage-correct output for maximum dynamics
-
Same tonal curve Hendrix depended on: blooming lows, throat-punch mids, and top-end bite that cuts like a Strat but sings like a Les Paul
You’ll hear it in every note. And feel it in your bones.
💀 THIS ISN’T FOR EVERYONE
Let’s be honest — these pickups aren’t cheap.
That’s because this tone isn’t easy to make. And no one else has the nerve to clone this specific sound from this specific year.
🧠 Most players chase Hendrix through pedals. We go straight to the source.
There’s no other way to get this exact voicing for under $10,000 — the price of a real '67 V.
