Description

This Non-Reverse Firebird I is a true standout. Firebirds hold a distinctive place in the Gibson lineup with their bold, futuristic design, and this example is no exception. It delivers excellent playability, with pickups that are impressively responsive and full-bodied. Cosmetically, the guitar is in outstanding condition, showing only typical signs of playwear and no significant blemishes. It comes with a modern Gibson hardshell case and the original non-functioning hardshell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
