I’d like the guitar with the thinner neck, since I have smaller hands. I dislike the look of the ESP or Jackson versions, even though they have thinner necks.

What model of Gibson guitar is this? I know that it’s for sure a Gibson and I know that Colbie Caillat has it customized.
But what is the model of the shape of it?
Here’s the guitar I mean: http://popdirt.com/images/misc/Colbie_Caillat_Breakthrough_Tour.jpg
How do you know for sure it’s a Gibson? There’s no headstock in the picture and that’s not a Gibson pickguard.

I am thinking of buying a realiable guitar, which I found out to be Gibson or Fender. But what is the exact difference between the two other that the looks? What is the difference between Gibson Custom, Gibson Standard, and Gibson Studio? Specific details if you can please. Also, what is the fastest neck, what are the best pickups, and any other spec that might help me decide what to get. I have been playing guitar for three years now, but all I have is a Ibanez RG series.. I want to upscale. Thank you!
it is hard to decide on this not knowing what kind of music you play the most - here are some links with tons of info about both, you should really buy the guitar which is best suited for the music you play on it, these will help you to figure that out:

good luck to you

What are the minimum dimensions that guitar case needs to fit a Gibson Flying V?
I bought a faded V and I only got a gig bag. It’s a pretty good gig bag, but a gig bag nonetheless.
If you haven’t ever tried its really hard to find a well-priced hardshell case that fits alternative guitar shapes (BC Rich, V’s, Explorers, and double-necks).
dude you got a flying V!!! so sick but sorry i dont know:(

It’s a custom guitar. I wanted to buy one, but the salesman at the guitar store said that hers is a made-to-order model.

I love these, I’ve played a few but am trying to locate a Banara smartwood. But, I read on a forum the scientists accidentally suggested Banara wood when it was lot rarer than they thought, and that’s why Gibson only made a few of these. I know they would probably want to keep it quiet if they accidentally used an endangered species for guitars, but I only really want one if its endangered.
They stopped making the Gibson Smartwood several years ago, so if you find one its in very limited supply. Gibson did keep a few of the less expensive woods in the product line, muira I think was one, and called it the Exotics or Exotic Woods. I think they may have separated with the Rainforest Alliance so won’t use the "smartwood" term anymore.
As far as a marketing exercise, they had some of their best builders during the early years of production, with fit and finish comparable to a custom shop guitar at a studio price.
But, to your question, I don’t know if its more expensive, that’s up to the marketplace supply and demand, but the Banara Smartwood is the rarest of all the Gibson Smartwood Guitars.

i’m getting a Gibson Flying V in a few days and i wanted to know if there was a certain genre(s) tht the v is good for playing.
everything, great blues guitarists (one thats really worth note, but his name escapes me) have used them, Jimi hendrix did for his bluesy psyche-rock
and a multitude of metal guitarists use them,

I play mostly metal and im trying to stay away from the overrated Gibson les paul brand of guitars. I like the Gibson explorer, but thats beyond my budget. I just want something unique that is better than the infamous al mighty les paul
Gibson’s are expensive but not over-rated. You pay for a lot of aesthetics on a Les Paul that you do not on something like a Strat. You can’t really say something is "better" than a Les Paul, that is subjective. Without knowing your budget it is hard to make a recommendation. I do have Schecter that plays as well or better than my Les Paul Gold Top or my Les Paul Jr. Once you get into the $1000 or so Schecter guitars you have a serious axe. If you play a lot of metal one of their models with the active EMG’s would be awesome. The new Stiletto Classic would be a killer guitar.
