Ah the Firebird... such an underated proposition in the world of Gibson guitars... and in the realm of vintage pieces, these Bicentennials kind of fly under the radar a bit. Rockin' pair of patent stamp Firebird pickups. Original pots & loom dating to late 1976. Uncommon finish, 'Vintage Sunburst' being one of rarer colours offered on the Bicentennial Edition birds. Gold hardware has a decent amount of tarnishing. Guitar has been played and loved. Frets have a some wear but don't quite warrant a dress in my opinion (plenty of meat there should you want to). Fingerboard looks to have been partially reglued on the treble side at some point in history but there is no evidence of any breaks or repairs. Original bridge has been replaced but included with the sale. Serial number 00247185. Original warranty papers included! Weight 3.5kg (nice and light). Includes the original pink lined Gibson hardcase. “A forest bird never wants a cage.” - Henrik Ibsen
