A new Victory, now with a Floyd Rose
Gibson is expanding the Victory lineup with the launch of the new Victory Floyd Rose, a model developed in direct response to sustained player demand. Following the successful 2024 reintroduction of the Victory series, modern players and longtime fans consistently asked for one key addition: a Floyd Rose® vibrato. The Victory Floyd Rose answers that request while preserving the core feel and character that have made the updated Victory models so popular.
The new model builds on the foundation of the Victory Figured Top, adding a Floyd Rose locking vibrato system to deliver the control, stability, and performance today’s high-energy players expect. It features a mahogany double-cutaway body paired with an AA figured maple top, and a 25.5″ scale mahogany neck carved to a SlimTaper™ profile that supports fast, articulate playing. An ebony fretboard with a compound radius and 24 medium jumbo frets provides smooth chording, clean bends, and low-action playability. Simple acrylic dot inlays complete the streamlined look.
A six-on-a-side Explorer™-style headstock fitted with Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners and a Floyd Rose locking nut ensures reliable tuning stability, even under the most aggressive vibrato use. Chrome-plated hardware, including the output jack plate, complements the guitar’s modern aesthetic, while a black five-ply pickguard, black switch tip, and black Top Hat knobs reinforce its shred-focused visual identity.
The electronics configuration offers versatility for a wide range of genres and gain levels. Two uncovered 80s Tribute humbucker™ pickups with zebra bobbins are wired to push/pull master volume and tone controls for coil splitting and selectable inner/outer coil options when split. Combined with the three-way selector switch, the Victory Floyd Rose delivers broad humbucking and single-coil tonal flexibility with an intuitive control layout.
Designed for expressive modern styles and players seeking extended creative range, the Victory Floyd Rose also excels with drop tunings thanks to its 25.5″ scale length. It is available in three gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finishes that highlight the figured maple top, and includes a hardshell case for protection and transport.
