This is the new Firebird Platypus model from Gibson USA! The Firebird has gone through many iterations throughout its history. In early 1965, the Firebird design featured 'flipped' non-reverse headstock that unlike the original multi-layered headstock was now flat like the bill of a platypus. The Platypus-style headstock featured six in line tuners as oppsed to banjo tuners, This guitar pays tribute to those original and incredibly rare models! Featurs include set-neck construction, two Firebird Mini Humbuckers and a tune-o-matic bridge setup. The Platypus headstock has been slightly modified to provide a straight string pull for less friction and improved tuning stability! Each Firebird Platypus comes with a hardshell case and the famous hot-stamped Firebird logo on the pickguard.
Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
