2007 Gibson Custom Shop Zakk Wylde Flying V Bullseye Limited Edition 17 Of 150
Here’s one of the rarest collector-grade Gibsons you’ll ever come across. A dream for Gibson Custom collectors, Zakk Wylde / Black Label Society fans, and any guitarist looking for a brutally powerful Custom Shop instrument with active EMGs and a Floyd Rose – all wrapped in one of the most striking Flying V finishes ever produced.
History & Legacy
In 2007, Gibson Custom introduced the “Inspired By Zakk Wylde Flying V Custom” – a short-lived limited run that reimagined the classic Flying V with Zakk’s signature Bullseye graphic, active EMG 81/85 pickups, and a Floyd Rose tremolo system.
With Les Paul Custom–level appointments (multi-ply binding, split-diamond headstock inlay, ebony fingerboard), this V is equal parts refined and aggressive – delivering tight, percussive rhythm tones, crystal-clear fast runs, and endless sustain.
As for production numbers: sources vary. Some report 150 units total, others mention a cap of up to 300. Most collectors agree that only ~150 were actually completed, which explains the rarity and consistent market appreciation.
