Gibson

Description

With its neck-through design, asymmetric body shape and reverse headstock, the Gibson Firebird was a truly original concept that pushed the envelope of modernity in solidbody electric guitars. This edition sports a pair of the mini-humbuckers that helped give it such a signature sound, as well as a fast, SlimTaper profile on the multi-ply maple/walnut neck. Played by legends, this is a guitar that became a legend in its own right.

    Had to bring it back. Nothing on this earth can get the fret buzz/rattle out. Luthier says truss rod was installed to loose and it had a terrible buzz that could be heard though the amp. Neck and frets were good but still could not get tne buzz out.Guitar center tried and professional luthier tried to get the buzz out. for almost three hours. Finish was usual Gibson. It was not sanded well and you could see every line in the wood through the paint and its not supposed to be a see through finish but solid red.
