This is a sweet Gibson Firebird from 2016. It has a mahogany body, a D shaped neck with a rosewood fretboard. It plays, sounds and feels great. Created by legendary automotive designer and visionary Ray Dietrich, the original 1963 Firebirds literally reversed conventional concepts for guitar bodies and headstocks. The Firebird 2016 T packs all the sonic punch of the original with extras that elevate this guitar to the pinnacle of playability.
2016 models came stock with the Steinberger gearless tuners that provide a whopping 40:1 gear ratio. Straight string pull eliminates winding. The locking knob on top secures the string to prevent slippage. String installation is fast and easy, and the tuning action is impressively smooth no cracks no repairs.
The neck is straight, and the truss rod turns fine. Never left the house. Literally brand-new condition.
Includes the Gibson Hardshell Case, as well as Firebird Gig Bag!
