660 Guitars announce the introduction of the new Aviator AV27 model guitar – their take on a heavy metal classic. The iconic V design is cut out of a slab of aircraft grade aluminum…
The AV27 has been engineered as a modern approach to the classic ‘V’ guitar design. The AV27 extends 660 Guitars’ already robust line of American-made instruments, featuring all-aluminum bodies. Customers can place orders directly from the factory.
Founders Drew Emory and Myke Wilkerson describe their guitars as being warm and resonant with tank-like construction. Like the Patriot, the shapely body of the AV27 has been fashioned from a single block of aircraft-grade aluminum, with a powder-coated finish available in numerous colors. Each of the rear horns is punctuated with parallel cutouts, with a large triangular gap to the front top doubling as a carry handle.
