1965 Gibson Firebird VII – Sunburst

Well Strung Guitars

Description

Have you ever seen mahogany flame quite like this body of this 1965 Gibson Firebird VII in Sunburst?! The wings on this piece have beautifully even flamed running throughout both wings, and we’ve never seen another quite like it! This piece is fully original, and in good condition all around, with even some of the often fragile gold plating sticking around! It feels unreal in the hand, and amped up, it sounds even better! 


Overall Condition: 8, light wear throughout, weather checking, spaghetti lines in the belt buckle region
