Description
Gibson Custom's Collectors Choice #47 takes the range into new territory by paying homage to one of the unconventional designs of Gibson's past.
Crafted to exceptional levels of precision based on hands-on study and laser scanning of original serial # 235304, this Collector's Choice edition delivers the authentic experience of owning an extremely rare "reverse-body" Firebird with an extremely desirable feature set, and all of the utterly individual tone that this groundbreaking model embodies.
The Gibson Firebird has always been a truly unique instrument with distinctive looks, feel and tone.
Now for 2018 the Gibson Firebird Elite takes these elements to new levels.
With gold hardware on a truly stunning Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish the Gibson Firebird Elite will certainly result in the player standing out from the crowd.
Bright mini-humbucking pickups on a solid mahogany body and 9 ply through body neck deliver tones which do these striking looks justice.
