1965 Gibson Firebird I – Ember Red
Description
You can feel the heat looking at this gorgeous 1965 Gibson Firebird I Non-Reverse in its rare and well-preserved original Ember Red finish! This is just a fun guitar to play, with two balanced P-90 pickups, a short Maestro Vibrola, and a super comfortable neck shape. The original frets and fretboard are in great shape and lend themselves to pleasant bends and playing, and even unplugged, this instrument is loud and resonant. The original finish is in good shape aside from some light weather checking and buckle rash on the back of the body, and all components, including the hardshell case, are original to this exact piece!
Overall Condition: 8, buckle rash, weather checking, very light playwear
