message: "The Flying V was featured on House, episode 1 of Season 4 entitled Alone."
It's hard not to be flippant and just say "so?". House may be a currently popular television show, but this note will only be interesting to... fans of House. ANd to no one when House finally runs its course as TV shows do. The Flying V has been seen in numerous television shows and films over the decades. It's a cultural icon, of course it's going to turn up on TV.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Biofh (talk • contribs) 00:23, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Unfortunatly, (or fortunatly), it isn't up to individuals to determine what they think is relavent to Wikipedia. One could make the same argument you did for a lot of articles on wikipedia. Next time, it would be wise to discuss deletion edits on the talk page BEFORE deleting them. The bigger picture here was missed: to begin a list of the flying V in popular culture so that a demonstration of its popularity in culture can be made. In fact, this is what you argue above: that it IS a cultural icon. There has not been a consensus reached in the wikipedia community on whether or not "popular culture" entries constitute trivia (WP:TRIVIA). So, until there is a consensus, I am in favour of leaving such reference on. Perhaps collecting a list of popular culture appearances on this talk page first, and then posting them on the main page might be a viable option.  -- 14:49, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

message: There are only five Flying V's in the world, it wouldn't be too bad to write a small list of all the owners. I know Damon Albarn has one but I'm not sure who else.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.233.244.68 (talk) 00:11, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I know Epiphone had made these in the past, I have one, but are there any sources that say that Epiphone still currently produce these like the artical states? I thought they were produced around 2001. Skullbird11 (talk) 15:04, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

message: The fact that there is no even a mention of the band here is shameful. Anyone who is a true fan of the flying V would know why. I'm not saying it needs to be a significant part of the article, but anyone who knows anything about flying V knows it was not only their trademark guitar (featured on album covers), but that it played a significant role in the band's image and the fact that it did also played an equally significant role in the popularity of the model. There's GOT to be some reliable sources for this. SentientParadox (talk) 21:57, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

message: I edited the article. ALL 1967 Flying Vs featured the vibrola, instead of the stop bar talpiece. There is not a single 1967 V that came out from the factory with the stop bar talpiece. The first Vs to feature stop bar from the factory were the 1971 medallions. 2804:6BA8:411:F900:92:D685:465E:3F8A (talk) 20:17, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
