[USA Firebird being discontinued?]

I suspect the demand for Firebirds is low and it is more profitable for Gibson to focus on LPs and SGs. Once they get enough orders they'll make some. They do have to retool and switch some materials to make a Firebird and the supply line is probably compromised so you might as well focus on what sells.

Some day I'm gonna get me one of those with a rosewood fretboard....

 

Sweet AXE!!!

Dude, the maple is half the appeal!

 

Has anyone seen or tried the new L6-S yet?

 

I was looking at them, they look pretty close to the originals.

 

the differences I noticed are the headstock, the pickups, and the white markings by the chickenhead switch.

I find the fact that they didn't use the right headstock shape jarring when the put the appropriate headstock on the Midtown.

 

But I'm still gassing hard for both a maple and silverburst.
