OldCowboy Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 A wolf in wolf's clothing. I could dig this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOgIgpveDtk&feature=youtu.be That is one Bad Lad! Speaks with great authority - the kind of guitar that I'd find extremely versatile and makes me WANT IT.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jalex Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Fine sounding guitar. I wouldn't mind owning it myself. I miss Tony doing the reviews though. Those two seem so uncomfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinder Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 That sounds amazing. Similar to my Dove but more roar and less chime. Is it a long scale neck? I couldn't make it out in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Canon - Tonemotor, , , eeeh error, meant tone-monster. Sounds like it. And this is probably an incredible guitar. However my intuition whispers it's a challenge to control that will take skills to keep from taking over. Jinder - It's a long-scale dread and thus lies in the vein of the well hidden J-60, not to mention the almost forgotten Sparrow. I'll pass - the original maple version is stellar. Besides that I for some reason like my Gibsons in mahogany or maple. But that's just me (as they say in the Sunday-school choir) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a very cool box, I had the jones for one of those for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/size][/font] I'll pass - the original maple version is stellar. Besides that I for some reason like my Gibsons in mahogany or maple. But that's just me (as they say in the Sunday-school choir) My initial reaction to the guitar was that it sounded remarkably similar to a good 1950's D-28, but with the additional power and clarity of scalloped bracing. Sacrilege, I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanCarlosVejar Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 In my opinion the Firebird is probably the crown jewel of the gibson montana era.In any version (Rosewood,Koa,Quilted Maple) they all have a fantastic sound.I would say there is something mystical about these firebird guitars. I am not taking away anything from any of the other models but this is something extra special. JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pesh Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Beautiful piano percussive sound out of that; lovely. Not keen on the 'guard shape, but still a wonderful thing. Has anyone seen one in the wild yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
