Epiphone Firebird! How old is this one?

Hi!

 

I need some help to find out which year this

Firebird was produced? It's got E logo on the

headstock and the whole Epiphone even further

up over the E-logo who stands alone.

 

I know that its at least 5 years, but I think maybe

its way older than that. When did they start produce

the Firebird? What logo did they use back then on the headstock?

 

The new Firebird got the whole Epiphone logo written on

the headstock without the E-logo. The new ones also got

slightly different mics than the older models.

 

Picture of the Epiphone Firebird I want to know the production

date on:

I will be EXTREMLY grateful for all help who contributes to

date this guitar production-year!

a key thing is whether it has a set neck or a bolt on neck. The Unsung set neck Epiphone Firebirds, with the minis, are the nicest I have seen in that price bracket.... (Unsung serials look like this u0708XXXX) which means they are around 2007 Unsung.....set neck.....

just check it has a set neck and if so snatch it........Unsung........grab it...but be sure it is not a bolt neck....
