Hang out with guitarist Joe Bonamassa at the Vintage Platinum Room at Guitar Center Hollywood—“A place that I spend a lot of time, and even more money”—as he recounts the tale of one of his rarest finds.
In 2017, this 1958 Gibson Flying V was brought into Guitar Center Sacramento by the niece of the guitar’s original owner as she was settling his estate. It’s known as the “Trash Bag Flying V,” because it was found leaning against a wall with a trash bag over it.
The guitar didn’t even stop at GC first. Her uncle also had a Selmer saxophone, and she went to another store to sell it. The shop bought the sax, but referred her to Guitar Center for the Flying V.
“You could work in a music shop—or have 304 stores like Guitar Center—live three lifetimes, and still not have something this rare and this original walk in the front door,” says Bonamassa, who was driving down from Seattle after purchasing a 1934 Ford pickup truck when he was texted photos of the Flying V. “But lo and behold—there it was in all its glory. She actually thought the guitar wasn’t worth much. She was informed it was worth a hell of a lot.”
Bonamassa estimates the Trash Bag Flying V is one of only 90 models made by Gibson in 1958. But he doesn’t secret away such a valuable acquisition in a vault or collector’s case.
“This one is a rock guitar that needs to be played,” he says. “It goes out on the road with me.”
