The Story

Custom Shop Limited Edition 1963 Firebird I Electric Guitar Frost Blue

The classic Gibson Firebird was a radical design that pushed the limits of what an electric guitar was supposed to look like. This Limited Edition Firebird I in a Frost Blue finish brings back the original no-frills Firebird model from 1963! A single mini-humbucker (with a solid cover, no pole piece to look just like the original) is wired to master Volume and Tone controls for easy access to screaming rock tones. The Mahogany and Walnut through-neck design provides tons of stability and sustain. Overall an excellent instrument with a look and sound that will both help to get you standing out from the pack.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authencity, Paperwork
