Description:
The second generation of the Firebird model arrived in 1965 and brought with it a small revolution.
The new glued neck significantly lightened the instrument, while the reversed orientation of the body shape and headstock turned the new instrument into a symbol.
This Custom Shop reissue comes at an accessible price and boasts meticulous accuracy. Every detail has been reproduced, with nothing left to chance, utilizing 3D scans of original specimens and comparative field tests.
A masterpiece born from the skilled hands of the Gibson Custom Shop luthiers.
