Gibson Firebird I Non-Reverse 1965 (consignment) No Longer Available

Gibson Firebird I Non-Reverse 1965 (consignment) No Longer Available

Gibson started producing the Firebird in 1963 (as the ‘reverse’ models), but by 1965 sales weren’t being made and Fender was suing for copyright infringement, so the guitar was basically flipped, producing these ‘non-reverse’ models, and these were produced until 1969 when the line was discontinued. The Reverse models used a neck-though design, while the non-reverse feature a set-in neck.This Firebird I has two P-90’s and a factory stop-bar-and vibrola combination. The vibrola itself works quite well; these units are really nothing like the Stratocaster bridge, but are much more like a Bigsby in terms of pitch change.

Gibson Firebird 2009 - SOLD

Firebirds – they have a unique sound that cuts through everything else. I can’t look at them without hearing Johnny Winter. This is a really clean example of a great guitar that works in very many styles.

Gibson ES-345 1963 (consignment) - SOLD

Close to the top of the Gibson semi-acoustic line, it’s easy to see from this example why these guitars were favoured by players who needed tone and playability along with a classic appearance. This guitar is in overall good condition.
