midiman56 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I picked up this guitar a couple of months ago and just never got around to taking pictures and posting about it. I have always loved the look of Firebirds, but other than owning an Epiphone Firebird VII for a while, never took the plunge on a Gibson model. Then this thing came along and really but the hook into me! To begin with, as much as I like and admire Jeff Baxter, I've never seen him actually PLAY a Firebird, so that whole connection was kind of lost on me and didn't play the least bit into my purchasing decision ... the sound and feel of this great axe, however, did. In the very few posts I've seen one it, I have heard the guitar described as "fiddly", and as having "too many switches", and it's trues ... it has a bunch, but the various tones you can get out of this thing make it more than worthwhile! Here are some pics for you (yes, I LIKE the finish too! ) Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveFord Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 http://www2.gibson.c...r-Firebird.aspx Pick up on/off, coil split switches - lots of options there. It looks an awful lot like the paint on the Harley 105th Anniversary bikes. How's the neck on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
