Because the EB took the world by storm?

Uwe will want one of these too...

For a company known for the Flying V, that's a confusing name...

Could this be sort of a reissue of the late 80s Gibson V (a/k/a Gibson Bass IV and V) but with a different headstock? Those had T-Bird pickups and Precision-ish bodies.

I liked the headstock on the IVs and Vs.
